Valerie & Roger's Recovery Fund

Donation protected
Hello everyone. I am Sean, Val's oldest son, and I am here hoping to help my family out through the kindness of others. On Monday, September 19th, Val and Roger's home exploded in a fireball, completely devastating the property. Val was caught in the explosion, receiving severe burns on her arms, legs and head. She is stable and recovering at the hospital at the time of writing. I am doing this on behalf of all of her children.

I am making this donation site for my Mom and Roger to get any extra assistance to help them through this terrible accident. We have a lot of family support from all over the country, but losing a home is beyond our ability to recover from alone. We are focusing on being with her through the healing process and making sure she recovers as quickly and safely as possible. There are a multitude of hurdles in the coming weeks and months, so any help that anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.

The money donated will be used for a variety of things such as medications, bills, basic necessities, and lodging while we search for a solution long-term. We have no idea for certain what the costs will be, but every little bit helps.

Thank you for your prayers and well-wishes,

Sean, Aaron, Katie and Gayle
