Most of you know, my Grandpa Gates passed away a few years back, mostly from the wear and tear on his body from cancer. Ever since I’ve felt compelled to help (in some way) to raise money to help fight this deadly disease. While I’ve only lost one family member to Cancer, we have also dealt with my Grandpa Becker and my dads skin cancer, my cousin Nicole’s , and my cousin Michael having various forms of cancer.
So for the past five years I’ve been on the committee for the American Cancer Society’s annual gala. This year we dumped the old dinner/auction/black tie format for a more festive atmosphere in all we raised over $180,000 for the ACS. I want to thank everyone that donated and gave their time. Every minute we spend working on this disease will bring us that much closer to finding a cure. I also want to thank Brian and Annie for going with us.
Thats all.
Greg
