Roofers fighting against Leukemia

CCN Roofers fighting against Leukemia
July 16, 2024 at 6:00 p.m.

Overwhelming support flooded in for the granddaughter of a Certified Contractors Network employee. 

For over ten years, Troy Timmer has worked for Certified Contractors Network (CCN) as a dedicated employee. And over a year ago his granddaughter Ellie was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer. He had been there to support her through her recovery while hundreds of crews, clients and contractors came to support Troy.  

Troy has worked as a corporate coach for CCN to help build high- performance management teams. Before his work at CCN, he was the president of Timmer Roofing Inc. Throughout his years at CCN and his entire professional career he has made a profound impact on those who work with him. Troy has dedicated his time to serving others and helping them learn to be successful.  

Young Ellie had been resilient in her battle against Leukemia. After several rounds of chemotherapy, she began to prepare for a bone marrow transplant; however, after the surgery, the family was informed that Ellie had relapsed. May 28 was a day that was supposed to be full of joy and celebration of her remission, yet the medical professionals suggested that the family begin to consider alternative treatments.  

The risks of having a second transplant were significantly higher than the first and the family continued to do everything they could to support Ellie. Ellie’s willingness to continue this fight was a true example of the incredible strength she carried. Recently, Ellie passed away due to her illness. 

CCN has banded together to help the Timmer family and support them during this difficult time. More than offering their thoughts and prayers, Troy’s team has been working tirelessly to give financial support to him and his family. In December, a GoFundMe account was started for Ellie. Many of Troy’s colleagues and clients have offered their support. Her parents were unable to work now as they were taking care of Ellie, and the donations have helped greatly. Over the past few months over 300 people have donated to Ellie’s cause. Roofing is about helping others in a time of need and supporting a community, and this is what many people have done for Ellie and her family. 

Please consider donating to this resilient family in their time of need.
