We wish to sincerely thank everyone who
contributed
to
the
success
of
the
"Benefit Car Wash-Bake Sale" on Saturday,
September 4,
for Snowvon Randolph, the
14 year old youth who suffered a severe
stroke and aneurysm on June 14.
Friends
and relatives brought a beautiful array
of baked goods, and over 60 cars and vans
were washed.
Donations totaled $1002.00
and with the matching funds from Aid
Association for Lutherans Branch #3723 of
St. Michael's Lutheran Church, a total of
$2002.00 was deposited to a special fund
at the U.S. Bank for Snowvon's medical
expenses.
Again we wish to thank everyone who
contributed to the success of this event,
and we hope and pray Snowvon's health
will improve each day.
