Please Help Fred and his Family Start Over!
As a close friend of Fred Shelly, (Griz/Grizzly, to those who know him well) I have created this GoFundMe to try and help him and his family try to start rebuilding again after tragedy struck.
On the evening of Saturday July 17th, approximately 6:45 pm, Fred returning to his home, found it fully engulfed in flames. Though the cause is not yet known at this time, the important thing is that noone was hurt or injured in the fire!
Just recently, Fred's beautiful daughter, Rachel, had relocated back home to the Island, with her boyfriend Lucas. Rachel and Lucas had been living with Fred, so they too lost all of their possessions in the fire. Quite literally, all that any of them have left is the clothes on their back.
And yet even during this difficult time, Fred is grateful that noone was hurt and is hugely appreciative of the love, well wishes and support being sent.
As all of you can imagine, there is a whole lot of chaos, stress, worry, concern, questions and processes happening. So in support of Fred and his family, who have helped so many others over the years, please consider donating to this GoFundMe, in whatever way you can manage, to help them out. If nothing else, perhaps this can help ease some financial concerns while Fred and his family work through everything else. Fred thanks and is hugely grateful to everyone who has reached out, even if he hasn't had the time to respond to everyone. Will update as possible.
