The Tommy Gaynord Memorial Fund’s “Good Works”

The Gaynord Family turned a medical malady into “Good Works” to help others. Tim and Tom Gaynord were diagnosed with Werdnig Hoffman’s disease when they were months old and then were eventually bound to wheelchairs. Tommy passed away in 2007 and the family established a fund in his name to help others. The Gaynords have donated over $68,000 to local and national charities, sponsored eight Make-A-Wish children’s requests, and participated in numerous walks and other non-profit activities.
