Light the Night 2009

[tubapress]

Hi all!

I will be taking part again this year in what will be the 11th annual Light the Night Walk ("LTN") to find a cure for Leukemia, Lymphoma and Myeloma takes place on Thursday, October 15, 2009. For the fourth year in a row I join my colleagues walking in memory of Carol Tomasullo, a dear co-worker who tragically fell victim to Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. Carol passed away on March 30, 2006...only 3 weeks after having been diagnosed.

Over the past three years, I have been truly humbled by the tremendous support I have received in sponsorship of my participation totaling more than $8000! And the Tuba/Euphonium community has been a big supporter!

Unfortunately, there is still more to be done toward eradicating these blood cancers. I would personally appreciate any contribution, regardless of the amount, that you would be willing to make in support of my goal of raising $5000 this year in Carol's memory.

One final BUMP before Thursday's big walk! Many thanks for all who have donated and my hopes remain high that others may be able to help as well.
