I am writing this letter to let the many caring people of our community know that a fund has been established for the benefit of Kent Ebert. The purpose of this fund will be to help Kent and his family defray some of the expenses associated with Kent’s fight against cancer.

Many of you may know Kent as the soft-spoken, hardworking gentleman that he is. What you may not know is that earlier this year Kent was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer for which he is being treated at Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown. Kent is in a battle, that is for sure, but he has much to live for and the courage and the will to win this battle. Recently, Kent and his wife, Heather, were blessed with the birth of a beautiful baby boy.

Kent is not alone in this fight. He has many people who love and care for him and are faithfully lifting him up in prayer. Your prayers and support would be much appreciated. If you are so inclined, please send a note to Kent and maybe even a check to “The Kent Ebert Benefit Fund”, in care of the Bayer Heritage Federal Credit Union, 178 North State Route 2, New Martinsville, WV 26155. Thank you very much for considering this request.

Sincerely,

Bill Pefferman
