Many of you may remember Neil Boumpani who directed the marching band and the pep band for many years. His wife has been disabled for some time and last year he became sick with a debilitating condition as yet not diagnosed. Neil used to work multiple jobs to earn enough money to cover the many expenses generated by his wife's medical needs. Now he's sick, too, and their money is running out. He's asked for help to raise money to cover the next couple of months, but it's not clear how they'll have enough money after that. A Go Fund Me account has been set up and the donations over the past couple of days have surpassed the modest goal of $6,000. I suspect Neil set the goal so low because asking for help in such a public way is difficult. I suspect it may also reflect how overwhelming the situation is.
