On April 27th, there was a Fundraiser and Silent Auction to help raise money for my wife who is battling Stage IV cancer.

We also have a $7,000 deductible.

The fundraiser turned out to be a great success and we wanted to thank the many businesses who donated gift cards or items to the Silent Auction.
