Morganville Family Looks to Community for Help
After several health scares and trials, the Goff family has reached its financial breaking point. But the community has stepped up.

The community has come out in full force to support the Goff family of Morganville, raising nearly $7,500 for their neighbors in need.
Tracy Goff, mother of 7 children, has created a GoFundMe page detailing the congenital heart defect her son Keith Jr. dealt with as just an infant, the Severe Aplastic Anemia diagnosis her now 2-year-old son Sean is battling and now Goff has found out she has breast cancer.
Goff's husband Keith is a Robertsville Volunteer Firefighter and forming Zoning Board member, and Tracy is a former member of the township Swim Board.
"This is truly too much for one family to handle. And while we have insurance, the cost of co payments and co insurance and medications are spiraling out of control," Goff wrote.
The family is looking to the community for help with medical bills. You can donate at the Goff Fundraising Page on GoFundMe. The family hopes is looking to raise $25,000.
