Our Testimonials

From Tina Reckaway


“Words can’t describe how much Sims Strong meant to our family. This group, I should say family, understands what we and others went through and if weren’t for them, the fundraising/BBQ Cookoff, I wouldn’t be able to pay for my husband’s medical bills, and those keep coming. 

We are so thankful to them for the prayers, the giving, the community they shared with us. Thank you just isn’t  enough. 

My husband, Michael Trey, fought hard, but he couldn’t beat ALS. We miss him so much, but cherish each memory we have. 

There is no cure, but Sims Strong is going to keep going for more families, like us. God bless each and every one of them for all the hard work they do. “


“Let me start off by saying Sims Strong is amazing. When my husband Adam Coldiron found out he had Stage 4 Cancer they wanted to have the benefit fir him and our family because our lives were turned upside down. Every member of Sims Strong works so hard and is so loving and caring. The benefit helped our family so much as Adam could not work anymore. There is no way I could ever thank them enough. But their love and kindness did not stop there. When they learned of Adams passing they bought dinner for my family and I. I could go on and on about how amazing they are. They were a true God send for my family and I. I love you all Sims Strong.”

“Sims Strong Foundation has made a difference in my life simply by restoring my faith in humanity.

As a long time participant with the cook off since its inception and being the first recipient outside the family to receive help from the organization, they have shown me that a community can come together in the name of the lord just out of the kindness of their hearts.

They have never asked for anything in other we pass on the love they have shown. The love they have shown and the help they gave me was genuine, pure and was felt by my entire family. I will never be able to repay the love and compassion they have given me and my family.

God truly has blessed this family and organization by letting them bless others in his name.
