BEN HAYES SUPPORT FUND

     Ben Hayes is the son of Bob & Bonnie Hayes the owners of J.L.Hayes and a good friend to all of us here at the store. On December 21 Ben had a tragic accident resulting in a serious spinal cord injury. Following a short stay at Maine Medical Center , Ben , his wife Erin and their daughter Isabel spent several weeks at The Shepherd Center For Spinal Cord Injuries in Atlanta Georgia.
     Ben and his family have recently returned home to Maine. Despite the high level of care that Ben received at the Shepherd center , he is still confined to a wheelchair. But he continues to make improvements , and his spirits are high.
     The Ben Hayes Support Fund has been established to raise funds to help offset the high costs of Ben's medical treatment and adaptive equipment. Any one who wishes to help can contact us here at the store. Donations can be made directly to the fund:
