Emergency Support for Terry & Jeff Shaw

Donation protected
**Help Terry & Jeff Rebuild After Devastating Loss**

Some people spend their lives taking care of others—never asking for anything in return. Terry Shaw is one of those people. Today, he—and his son Jeff—need us.

Everyone who knows Terry loves him. Right now, this family is facing more than anyone should have to bear:

* In 2023, Terry lost his youngest son, Peter, to cancer
* In 2024, he lost his wife, Allie, after 62½ years of marriage—the love of his life
* Just last week, his son Jeff collapsed from heart failure, required a pacemaker, and has been unable to work since March—he is now applying for paid leave
* And just days ago, Terry lost his beloved dog, Frenchie, in his arms

On top of this heartbreak, Terry is now financially vulnerable. After Allie passed, he moved from Texas to Oregon to be near his grandchildren—but was taken advantage of by someone he trusted, losing his financial security and home to foreclosure.

Jeff has been the primary provider. With his sudden health crisis and uncertain ability to return to work, their situation has become critical.

We are raising $12,222 (Angel numbers ✨️) to help Terry and Jeff with housing, medical-related needs, and basic living expenses during this incredibly difficult time. All funds are going directly to Terry.

Any amount helps. If you can’t donate, please share.

From me, personally—
The Shaw family has been part of my life since I can remember (the 70’s). They have always been like family to us. Knowing what Terry and Jeff are going through has been heartbreaking - I have to try and help. If you know them, you understand. If you don’t, please trust me—they are the kind of people who have spent their lives being there for others.

Now it’s our turn to show up for them.

Thank you ❤️
