Aid Tom Crosby: A Master Craftsman Battling Cancer

Tom Crosby, a true artisan, has dedicated his life to the intricate art of stained glass. For decades, he's been a master craftsman at Classical Stained Glass in Cincinnati. His steady hands and keen eye have breathed life into countless windows: both original works of art and antique restorations.

Beyond his talent, Tom passes his knowledge down to others. He's always been there for his colleagues, offering guidance and support. He is known for his love of animals. Classical Stained Glass has two shop cats, Sheba and Mr. Smith, and they adore Tom, who would make sure they were well-fed and had plenty of treats every day. Tom's quiet persistence transformed the once-fearful and feral Mr. Smith into a beloved companion.

But now, our dear friend Tom faces a formidable challenge. In June, he started having trouble swallowing, and soon discovered he has cancer in his lungs, liver, and esophagus. He had to start treatment immediately. The devastating illness has forced him to pause his beloved work. While he battles this disease with courage and determination, the financial burden has become overwhelming. His medical expenses, coupled with the loss of income, have left him struggling to make ends meet.

We're reaching out to you today to ask for your help. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in Tom's life. Your generosity will help alleviate his financial worries and allow him to focus on healing. Let's come together to support this extraordinary man who has brought so much beauty into the world.
