Parishioner offers to shave beloved locks to help

The sorrow of the loss of a loved one is always great. However, in many cases that sorrow can be compounded by the circumstances surrounding the loss.

One of our own parishioners, James Halfaday, lost his brother-in-law Randall on the first day of this new year. The loss of Randall has left James' sister, who lives in Ohio, as the single parent of four children under the age of 5.

To help make a financial contribution to his sister, James is asking people to bid for shaving off his hair. Those who know James, know that this is a sacrifice for him because of how much he appreciates and cares for his hair.

Of course, this also shows that this gesture comes from his heart as he helps his sister and her children during this difficult time for them. If you would like to help, you can make a bid by clicking here.
