Officer needs help
Fellow Calgunners and coppers...
A very dear friend, and fellow officer, was recently diagnosed with ALS. A friend at work started up a donation site to help him and his wife with expenses that will most likely arise during his struggle. We started with a goal of 10k and it looks like we are almost there. But I don't see the harm in trying to go above and beyond. There has been talk about him needing a van to transport his wheelchair in the future, so we are hoping this fund may help. I am not an extremely active member here as far as posting, but I check the site daily and figured the Calguns community and LEOs here might want to donate. At the very least spread the word for a great man and kick-*** cop who could use some prayers. Thank you http://www.youcaring.com/coryoakes |

I had the privilege of meeting Cory when he responded to a 459 res at my father in laws house. I don't know him personally, but he did a fantastic job and went well above and beyond to show my father in law courtesy and respect. From my contacts at his Dept. he IS a kick-*** cop and a good man to boot! I wish him well and will donate for sure!

I got notice of this earlier today in my work email. I attended a few trainings down there earlier this year.
Reposted, and wishing the best with donations, treatments, and family. |

I'm very sad to have to update you all. But our brother Cory passed away early on the morning of March 17th.
http://blog.pe.com/breaking-news/201...hrigs-disease/ I will post an update later on the services for those interested. The website will stay up and donations will still be accepted. The money will go to his wife and unborn child. Thank you all for your prayers and donations. |

Rest In Peace Cory. My wife is a Doctor that specializes in ALS. It comes out of nowhere and there's no stopping it. A tragic disease under-publicized because it moves so fast. Please donate and help support Cory's Family, and read up on ALS and spread the word. More research is needed to hopefully stop or at least aid in earlier identification.
