The Family of Terry King

Donation protected
My name is Trish Goerke and I'm fundraising for my brother-in-law and sister, Terry and Jackie King. Unfortunately, of recent weeks, Terry has fallen extremely ill. He has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. With this recent diagnosis, there will be a lot of unforeseen expenses such as traveling to various appointments, medical expenses, and many other expenses one can endure through difficult times like these.

Many of you know Terry King as the captain of the "Ernie C" and appreciated the hard work he put in on the waters of Lake Michigan as a commercial fisherman. Many of you know Terry of the guy who would drop off his fresh whitefish as a special treat. Many people know Terry from the countless evenings of at the Cove listening to him entertain us with his amazing "Spoons" ability. And some know him for his funny and witty personality. And many people know Terry for just simply being one of the nicest guys in town who would do anything for you. So many people have reached out and asked how they can help. Here's the chance; I'm writing to ask you to support me in my efforts to raise money to help the family get through this without having to worry about where the funds will come from. Just a small donation can help me reach my goal. Your donation will go towards travel expenses, additional medical expenses, and other expenses that may arise. Thank you so much for your consideration.
