Dolphin Family,

I’m reaching out today with an important request to support someone who has given so much to our team. Our former head coach, Robert Parks , and his wife, Leilah, had their home severely damaged in the flash flooding Tuesday evening. While we’re grateful that Rob, Leilah, and all their animals are safe, the damage is extensive (over $50,000) and, heartbreakingly, not covered by insurance.

The immediate goal is to pump the remaining water out of their home and begin safe removal of damaged materials: HVAC, insulation, appliances, interior and exterior walls (now bowing from water damage), siding, flooring, duct work, and more. After that remediation and removal are complete, we hope to help them rebuild and restore their home to a safe and healthy environment.

If you’re able, please consider donating to their GoFundMe and sharing the link with friends, neighbors, and anyone who might want to help. Any amount will make a difference as Rob and Leilah start the long process of recovery.

Thank you for being the kind of community that shows up when it matters most. Let’s rally around a coach who has poured his heart into the Dolphins!

With gratitude,

--Coach Janelle
