Support G's Family in Their Time of Need

Thank you all so much for your donations, prayers, shares, and support for G’s family. I will be handing the donations over to his wife, Colleen, in the coming days, but will leave this open should others want to contribute. Again, thank you for supporting his family in this terrible time. 

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we share the loss of our valued coworker, Gareth Lloyd. Gareth was a beloved husband, father, son, and friend to many. Knowing the financial burden his sudden death brings to his family, we would like to raise money for G’s wife and daughter to help ease the stress of this difficult time.

Any support you are able to provide is greatly appreciated. It is in these times that we can all come together to support each other and make it through. Please keep G’s family in your thoughts and prayers.
