Dean Crabtree and the Crabtree Family

A dear friend of ours is in need of help and is reaching out. Here is his story. My name is Jason Crabtree from Vandalia, Ohio and I am stepping out of my comfort zone to ask kindly and humbly for 1st and foremost prayers, and secondly donations to help my family. My father and mother have both tested positive for the COVID19 virus. I am sick and quarantined at home with my son as well awaiting my results. My father Dean Crabtree was recently confirmed with COVID19 and pneumonia and is currently fighting for his life in the ICU. He is on a ventilator which is breathing for him, and on dialysis to assist his kidneys. My father is the hardest working and most strong willed man I've ever known. However, upon leaving the hospital he will come home to face a huge financial burden. You see, my father and I own a small business in the community, Crabtree Heating and Air which was started by my grandfather 43 years ago. I have strong hopes to one day pass the business on to the fourth generation, my son Corey. We're not sure this is going to be possible now due to this crisis. My father had exhausted most of his savings prior to becoming ill in an attempt to make it through the lack of business from COVID19. Since his hospitalization, we have exhausted all additional funds available and have no family members able to work. My goal is to replenish the personal funds my father utilized to keep the business alive, and hopefully an additional 6 months of our business expenses so that my father can come home to recover. We desperately need him to concentrate on his health and healing and not have to experience the financial stress of losing our family business. Instead when he awakens, I hope to show him the care and compassion of our community. Please keep my family in your prayers. If you are able to donate in these difficult times your generosity will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God bless you and yours.
