Ernest Brooks and Family

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kim Smith and I am the owner of Johnny’s New York Style Pizza (Columbus, Ga). Sadly, ten days ago, one of our crew members was shot three times during an attempted robbery as he was leaving a family member’s home. Ernie has been part of our team for five years. He is the sweetest, most down to earth person you could meet, and has a heart of gold. He is a father to two sons, and although he has been unconscious since the incident, we know that he and his family need our help. He has lost one kidney already and the doctors are super worried about his pancreas and other kidney not functioning properly. His mother has been by his side everyday as we all continue to pray for his healing and recovery. If you can find it in your hearts to help at all, any amount will be greatly appreciated and so helpful to his family. These funds will be used to help his mother while she is out of work with him, and also to help keep Ernie’s financial responsibilities up to date. Thank you all so much for any donations, prayers and shares of this post. And y’all please, please, please be safe out there!!
