The Kylie Williams Family

Hi, my name is Alyson Byrne with Lee Wetherington Homes. A terrible tragedy has befallen a member of our Lee Wetherington Homes family, and we are reaching out to our many friends, loyal customers and Trade Partners to ask for your help. Jack Williams is our V.P. of Construction and has spearheaded Construction Operations at LWH for 20+ years. His son Kyle lives in NJ with his wife Joelle and their children, Jack’s Grandchildren, Kylie (3) and Lucas (2). This Saturday afternoon, January 13th, just a few short miles from home, Joelle, Valerie (Joelle's sister) and the children were involved in a very serious multi-vehicle crash which had unimaginable consequences. It is so hard to write these words, but Jack’s beautiful Granddaughter Kylie, Kyle and Joelle’s precious daughter, died at the scene of the accident. Joelle herself has suffered extremely severe injuries and has already had 2+ surgeries and faces several more plus rehab and an extended recovery of months to a year +. Lucas and Valerie, thankfully, suffered minor injuries and will be fine.

Kyle & Joelle are a hard-working couple, both teachers. Plus, Joelle also was growing her own successful children’s party planning business and Kyle is a very successful Youth Competitive Swim Coach. In the blink of an eye on what should have been a regular Saturday evening, their lives imploded. They now not only face the immeasurable grief of losing Kylie but the huge health challenges that Joelle will face to recover.

Jack’s LWH family have been brainstorming how to best help Kyle & Joelle in a more practical way other than our heartfelt condolences. We know that because of Joelle’s serious injuries and the challenges they will face such as loss of income, funeral expenses for little Kylie, medical bills, and what were once regular monthly bills like mortgage & car payments etc. will now become a worry for this young family. We wanted to help relieve the worry of financial difficulties by launching this GoFundMe request. So, we humbly ask for your help, no matter how big or small, to help the Williams family at this terrible time in their young lives. I know Jack and Kyle & Joelle will be eternally grateful, as will their extended family at LWH. It takes a Village and tonight they most surely need one.
