Default help an air force vet and his son please

I've known this young man's father, Charlie, since I was in 1st grade in 1979. he was a wrestler for the air force and even tried out for the Olympic wrestling team, falling just short each time. The last time that I talked to him a few years ago, he was working as a driver for Fed Ex as well as working on the weekends. He has devoted his post military life to his family and I am proud to call him a friend.

I met Tyler once when he was a toddler. It was around the 4th of July and I helped Charlie unload his wheelchair from a normal nonequipped van. They were meeting his wife's family for fireworks. It was not easy, even with the 2 of us to unload the motorized chair.

It does not take any $$$, just to cast a vote to push him to the top. If ever there is a family deserving help, it would be this family. The membership here seems like the ones that would be willing to help out.

Tyler Carbaugh | Mobility Awareness Month - Vote For Me!
