Adrian Steffes

Last March, Adrian Steffes was diagnosed with a progressive and advanced form of liver cancer and genetic form of liver disease. Unfortunately, without a lifesaving transplant, Adrian will soon run out of time and won’t be able to survive on his own. This news has been devastating to both Adrian and his family — however, they have been very supportive and hope to see him through the transplant process.

Adrian has been married to his loving wife, Jayne for over 40 years. He is a wonderful father of two young ladies and a proud new grandfather to an adorable baby girl. Adrian is also a brother, a mentor, a loyal friend and trustworthy neighbor to many people. Since moving to Houston in 1989, Adrian has volunteered for many community organizations. He has spent countless hours at Klein Volunteer Fire Department, on a HLS Rodeo committee, as a Bridgestone MUD Director, and is the liaison with the Constables and Engineers. Adrian has also volunteered for the Bridgestone & Candlelight Hills Swim Teams, and has officiated for both daughters’ high school and USA swim teams.

Adrian has undergone extensive medical testing and has been placed on the active liver transplant list. Even with health insurance, Adrian’s unreimbursed medical expenses related to his transplant will be substantial and a significant financial burden on his family. Additionally, Adrian will have cancer treatment expenses, co-pays and deductibles, caregiver fees, travel and lodging expenses. Following a successful transplant, Adrian will be required to undergo follow-up medical care and will have to take costly post-transplant anti-rejection medications for the rest of his life.

To help with this financial burden, a fundraising campaign in Adrian’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a trusted nonprofit organization that has been providing community-based fundraising guidance to patients and their families for more than 30 years. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the South-Central Liver Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.

Let’s all get together to show Adrian how much we appreciate all that he has done for us during his 25 years of service for our community. Please share this information with others as we will be providing information in the near future regarding fundraising events.

Thank you for your support,
Adrian’s loving family and friends
