We received some sad news. Nathan Lefevre, fourteen year-old son of Paul Lefevre, Branch Manager at RWC Building Products in Southern California, was recently diagnosed with brain cancer. The diagnosis has left him terminally ill with 12-16 months to live.

A fund has been organized to assist the Lefevre family with upcoming financial hardships and give Nathan the vacation of his dreams.

The details on the fund may be found here.

Any support you are able to lend will be much appreciated by the Lefevre family during this difficult time.
