Funeral Expenses for the Cleophats

Donation protected
My name is Tim Clark I am the Head Football Coach for the CCJFA Jr Varsity Sharks for the 2016 Season. My team is made up of 11, 12 and 13 year olds in Cape Coral Fl.  Marcus Cleophat is one of my players on my team who is probably one of the happiest kids I have ever been around. He always has a smile on his face even when Im 2 inches away from it and screaming at him at the top of my lungs at practice or in a game. This will be the second season I have had him on my team and he is a true joy and anot awesome football player with the heart of a lion. This Wednesday  night was the first time since I have known him that he didn't have that smile we all know and love, he was heartborken and as i spoke to him to let him know myself my other Coaches and his team would be there for him he just shook his head and as the tears rolled down his cheeks like a waterfall and the smile was gone it truly broke my heart. Last Friday July 29 th his Father and Mother were visiting there home country of Haiti when they were robbed by 2 men with guns. As his father attempted to fend off the attackers they pulled a gun and shot him multiple times and then shot his mother also. she survived and is now back home in cape coral but unfortunately his father did not. This is a horrible tragedy that noone can prepare for physically, mentally, emmotionally  or financially. So I reached out to our immediate Shark family for donations to help the family cover the cost of laying there loved one to rest. If we can help this family with the finacial burden this will help them to focus on there physical, mental and emmotional healing by not having to stress over money. I am asking for all of you to help us help our player/football family member out during this tragic time in his life. Thank you for taking the time to read this and Thank You in advance for your donation no matter how big or how small every little bit hepls. The 2016 CCJFA Sharks will be dedicating this Season to MC #18 in Memory of his father! #sharknation
