Smoke Doctor family, I never thought I would make a post like this.
For years, The Smoke Doctor was about more than barbecue. This community supported us, and whenever we were able to give something back, we tried.
We supported local schools and events, donated to the Farley Hill food bank, helped provide warm coats for kids who needed them, and fed a whole lot of people along the way.
I was proud of what we built together.
Today, life looks very different for me. After losing the business and going through some difficult personal circumstances, I'm starting over with essentially nothing financially.
Asking for help is not easy for me. I spent a lot of years trying to be the person who helped somebody else.
Now I'm asking my Smoke Doctor family for a little help getting back on my feet.
I've created a GoFundMe to help with basic living expenses, housing, transportation, utilities, and enough breathing room to rebuild.
If The Smoke Doctor ever fed your family, catered your event, made you laugh, helped your school or organization, or simply gave you a good plate of barbecue, please consider donating or sharing this.
Even if you can't give anything, a share matters.
Thank you for all the years you supported The Smoke Doctor. I'll never forget it.
❤️Cornell
