7/18/14 - The community is rallying to provide funding support to a local business owner who suffered a stroke this week. Emergency crews responded to the home of Ray Kroske on Saturday, and he remains hospitalized in the intensive care unit. Kroske is a single father who owns his own business, and his medical insurance status is unclear at this point. His friends and family have started a fundraising campaign to help cover the cost of his treatment and the lost profits from his time off work, and they are amazed by the outpouring of support they have gotten from the community. So far, more than $16,000 has been contributed to the cause through a Go Fund Me site. Fundraising events are currently being planned, with at least one likely to take place on August 9th during the Dexter Daze. More details should be made available in the coming weeks.
