Donations

I've been asked about making a donation on Chris's behalf. Chris loved Highlands and we always supported our local volunteer organizations. So the first one is the Highlands First Aid Squad at PO Box 173, Highlands, NJ 07732 They were the one's to respond and transport him the first time he went to the hospital and did such an amazing job in keeping him calm and making sure he was comfortable when they transported him. Our squad receives very little from the outside and relies on donations from the town to sustain themselves.

The other one is Cancer Care, which is the place that I reached out to after he was diagnosed. They focus specifically in helping people with cancer, caregivers, conduct seminars and also have a foundation that helps people financially with medications. We were very, very lucky to be in a financial position that this evil disease did not impact us, but it devastates so many other people. Their web address for online donations is:

Their web site is www.cancercare.org

I will know on Monday about being able to use the stone church. If it is unavailable we will just meet at Off The Hook at 11:45. We will arrange for food and I'll see what can be worked out for alcohol. I hope to have the room upstairs for use, otherwise we'll sit outside.
