My name is Pastor Paul Carr. On Thanksgiving night the life of loved Leroy Grim Jr. was taken at the hands of a  drunk driver, Our family has been devastated by this senseless act that caused the death of our loved one. Leroy was a fun loving, happy go-lucky brother, father, and grandfather. His passion for sports often had him at the arena cheering on local biddy and high school basketball and football teams.
In an effort to defray funeral cost and establish a memorial fund in Leroy's name we are asking that you contribute to this fund. The funds raised will be used to establish a memorial that will give scholarships to deserving underprivileged youth in the area. Any amount you can contribute is greatly appreciated.
