Step up for the Poes

Story

Our Brother Allen Poe is facing a tough stretch ahead. He recently underwent major back surgery and will be recovering for about 13 weeks. To make matters even more challenging, his wife, Krystal, has been hospitalized with anemia. They both returned home on Halloween. As many of you are aware, Allen’s elderly mother lives with them, and they care of her as well. This is one of those moments when our Brotherhood’s strength truly shines through. The Poe family could use our help, whether it’s a few hours of your time, your practical skills, or a financial contribution. They currently need support primarily with meals and transportation to and from appointments since Allen can't drive, and Krystal is going to be pretty exhausted from her stay in the hospital. Brother Jeff Landborg has already stepped up to handle snow removal, but he would certainly welcome a helping hand if anyone can assist if there is a heavy snow. Any way you can share your time, lend your talent, or offer a bit of financial help will make a real difference for this family that has given so much of themselves to others.
