Please consider donating to the wonderful family. Derek coached Leland during his JFL years. He is also a fellow racer.
Good Afternoon Raider family! One of our own is in need of some help. As many of you know Coach Derek Roberts has been battling brain cancer for the last 17 years with reoccuring tumors coming back every few years. It's been a crazy up and down battle for his family. Recently, it's been more down hill than not. The new tumor growth is inoperable and not responding to treatment as it should. Over the last several months, Derek has lost the ability to talk and use the right side of his body leaving him disabled. His wife Ashley, our head team mom is the sole breadwinner for their family, but has had to take alot of time off to care for him. Derek has been a coach for the EPJFL for 13 years and a board member for 12 years. If anyone would like to donate to help, you can stop by any Cefcu and tell them you would like to donate to the "Roberts Family Fund". If you would like to make a direct donation, please send us a message and we will arrange getting it to them. Please help spread the word and share this post! We truly appreciate it!
