Support for Rodney Reed's family

Support for the parents of Rodney Reed
As many of you know, Rodney Reed has been on Texas death row for 17 years for a crime he did not commit. While he has been locked away, fighting one appeal after another, his family has been struggling to live and work in the small town of Bastrop, Texas, where the framing of Rodney Reed took place.
Imagine being the parent of a child who has been wrongfully convicted. Imagine the stress and sorrow, the pain and longing to see and hug your child, to see him safe, happy and free. Now try to imagine the toll that such stress would take on any family. The Reed family has endured this with dignity, faith and grace. They have never asked for anything from anyone. They are a self-sufficient, private and proud family.
So it is with some hesitation that we have set up this fund to help the Reed family at this very difficult time.
Mr. and Mrs. Reed have been married for 50+ years, had six sons together, and been through more than most of us can imagine.
On Friday, March 27th, Mr. Walter Reed passed away.
Thankfully, he lived to see his son granted the stay of execution he so justly deserves.
If you would like to help the family with expenses related to the funeral for Mr. Reed, a retired military veteran, please donate what you can.
This was requested by Rodney for his mother, and all proceeds will go directly to Mrs. Sandra Reed.
Thank you for caring and for your support.
