Go Team McGraw! Earl's Fund

     Earl McGraw has begun his fight against Lung Cancer. What started out as a simple cough, turned into what would be anyones nightmare.  The cancer was quite a surprise as Earl does not smoke or drink.  Earl is always active playing/ coaching basketball with his kids or tennis with his wife, Roxanne.  Earl is an educator.  He has been the Dean of Students, and Assistant Principal of several schools in the Franklin County Community for 19 years.  Earl has touched so many students lives throughout the years with his bigger than life positive attitude. Earl inspires, influences, and believes in every student hoping to set them on a path to success.  
     Before Earl was diagnosed, he had just started his new position as Assistant Principal, at the Turners Falls High School.  Being new to the school, Earl has not been able to accumulate his vacation, personal, or sick time.   Now that Earl has started his radiation and chemotherapy, he will be traveling daily, 45-60 minutes each way, to Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, MA. Unfortunately, the medical bills have started to roll in.  We are hoping that together, we can help offset the cost of gas, medical expenses, and help the McGraw family when times are tough.  Earl and Roxanne are humble people that do not like to ask for help, but we feel it is our turn to pay it back and have the community help them.   Their focus should be on recovery and healing, not financial burdens created by cancer.
     We thank-you in advance for anything you can donate during this difficult time!!!

We love you EARL!!!
