Run for Chuck

Hi

Below is an email from my niece who is a student/Asst. Crew Coach for Drake University.  She is team member of triathonal team who is raising money for the Leukemia/Lymphomia Society.  I was very excited to receive her email this morning. We are very proud of her and Chuck would be honored by her efforts......

For those who do not know, my brother Steven, Jaclyn's father is a "Cancer Warrior" of Lymphoma Non-hogkins for the past 25 years......we are blessed everyday that he chooses to stay with us.....

"I have some very exciting news, in a meeting with my senior team captains this morning some details have been changed for our "Run for Chuck" event. I gave them his bio that Aunt Dayna sent my way and it only went up from there. First, they do not want to run at 31st Living History Farms Off-Road 7 Mile race, they would like to create their own race, preferably a 5K on campus. This way they can get other athletic teams and student organizations involved! They are very excited about getting all of the details together to find the best way to get more people to come out to run with us and make donations for the "Run for Chuck". They have a meeting on Monday with the sports information director and athletic director to find out how they can get the event advertised for donations and participation.

I was very excited about their ideas and enthusiasm, and I hope you all are as well. The date is now up in the air, and details need to be worked out, so I will keep you all posted.

Lots of love, Jaclyn "

I will post more information as it evolves..........

Today, we had Chuck's internment at the North Myrtle Beach Gardens.......our (b/c some day I will join him there) Mausoleum wall faces the ocean. He/we would like that and he is very close to our home....It's all good.......

God Bless
