Light the Night at Cousin's BBQ

This year will be the second year that we will participate in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society walk, "Light the Night". Amy, my sister, is our team captain and had an awesome of idea of having a fundraiser at Mom and Dad's favorite BBQ place, in their old neighborhood!

When they called Amy back, the owner Cliff, who had known mom said, "Anything for Nancy." Isn't that amazing? It gave me chills! He is such a sweet man. He took such great care of us! Mom and Dad have been coming to Cousin's since the opened back in 1983! They have awesome food and even more awesome people who work there!!! We are so thankful to them for all that they did!

So last Thursday evening at the Cousin's BBQ, we had friends, family, and patrons come and donate to our team to support LLS in honor of the memory of mom!! It was so cool!

Thank you so much for all who came and supported! WE RAISED $800!!! WOW! Thank you so much!!!!

The actual walk takes place tomorrow evening, Oct 21st! If you would still like to join us, you are more than welcome to!!!! Here is the link!!!
