If you know us, you know we are strong, independent people that strive to succeed on our own. If you don’t know us, let me tell you about this man I am asking for help for. He is one of the most hard working, loyal, dependable and loving men I’ve ever known. He has held his head high as he has struggled to build his business in this horrible economy and has done well by being honest and delivering the high quality service he promises. Last month his truck he uses every day in his business lost its transmission and had to be completely replaced. It is not a small cost, especially since it has to be custom for the heavy loads he hauls for his business. Once they started working on it they found more issues and it increased the cost by $3500, for a total $11,500. We have paid $8000 but due to being without his truck for a little under a month our savings is completely wiped out and we cannot pay the rest of the repair, nor can he work because the shop refuses to release his truck until it is fully paid.  I am not asking for more than we need and I am not trying to give a sob story- I am simply asking for our community to believe in and support us in a desperate time of need. Please help us get his business back up and running so he can support his family and continue to grow his business because we have tried every means possible to cover this on our own and the shop refuses to work with us and we have exhausted all other methods of raising money. I am only asking for everyone to believe in this man and his business so that he can support his family and restore his faith in humanity.
