Chad Parker, a dedicated member of the Freeville Fire Department for over 30 years, is battling serious health issues, forcing both him and his wife, Liz, to take leave from work. His family has launched a GoFundMe to help with medical and living expenses.
A fourth-generation firefighter, Parker has been a vital part of the community, often putting service above personal time. His nephew, Greg Parker, says the family hopes to raise $8,000 to ease financial burdens while Chad undergoes treatment at Strong Memorial Hospital.
