Expenses for Shorty (Billy) Hunkins

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Katalina and I'm writing this on behalf of my whole family but most importantly my grandfather. Many people heard about the accident that occurred on the evening of January 4th. However, only some know that the gentleman involved was my grandfather, Shorty Hunkins.

Shorty is known by many and cherished by all. He's been our greatest example of what a man should do for their family at any given moment. He bought me my first car at 16 and today, if my car was broken, he would try and handle it for me. Shorty is an amazing friend, husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather and great-grandfather. He has dedicated his life not only to his family but also to being an important member of the Elk's Lodge in Waukesha.

If you know Shorty you know he's always moving. He loves to get things done but also enjoys bowling with friends and just about any league his lodge has going on from bocce ball to horseshoes. He is always the first person to volunteer to help somebody out. Life will most definitely be changed for Shorty. As of now, the update we can provide is that he suffered a small brain bleed, many broken bones and he will have numerous surgeries coming up in the next few days/weeks and a long road to recovery ahead of him. He is currently medically sedated and the family is there waiting and getting new updates daily. Please continue to keep Shorty in your thoughts and prayers!

Our family will be dedicated to helping him heal after this injury but we know there will many expenses during this healing time. We want to be able to think of these expenses last and think of Shorty first. Any donation is greatly appreciated from the bottom of our hearts! If you'd like to provide a donation in person you can contact anyone in the family.

Thank you so much!
