In Support of The Hoel Family
Our community has always had an incredible way of showing up for one another, and right now, a very special family could use some of that love and support.
Mr. Hoel was recently hospitalized after suffering a brain bleed. At this time, there are still many unknowns surrounding his condition, how long he may remain in the hospital, and what the days and weeks ahead may look like.
His son, Gavin, recently graduated from Dripping Springs High School and is currently in Illinois pursuing his dream of playing baseball. As soon as he learned what was happening, Gavin came home to be by his dad’s side and to help care for his younger brother, Balin, who has special needs and depends on his family for care and support.
In the middle of navigating the uncertainty surrounding his dad’s health, Gavin is now carrying a lot on his shoulders. Our hope is that we can come together as friends, neighbors, teammates, and community members to help lighten that load giving Gavin the ability to focus on being a son to his dad and a big brother to Balin without having to worry about every meal, errand, expense, or day-to-day need along the way.
We have created this SupportNow page so there are many different ways to help. Whether that means providing a meal, sending a gift card, helping with an errand, offering assistance with Baylen, making a financial contribution toward medical and everyday expenses, or simply keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers every act of kindness matters.
There is absolutely no expectation to give financially. Sometimes the greatest gift is simply showing up in whatever way you can.
The road ahead is still uncertain, but one thing we can make certain is that this family does not have to walk it alone. If you know the Hoel family, you know they are the kind of people worth showing up for. We would love to surround them with the same kindness, care, and support they have given to others.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for loving on Mr. Hoel, Gavin, and Balin during this incredibly difficult time. Whether you give, help, share this page, or simply keep them in your prayers, it is deeply appreciated. ❤️
