Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

From the bottom of our hearts, our mom, dad, Erin and I would like to say how much we appreciate everyone's amazing generosity at last night's fundraiser at the Greene Turtle. Your support of the Michael Gotzens Foundation, Inc. helped bring in $4,763 (NOW official amount!) for Mike's needs. This amount doesn't include your hard work eating, drinking, and being merry, we still have yet to see the amount being given from the Greene Turtle!

We hope to see everyone at the golf tournament on November 1st as well!

A HUGE THANK YOU to Crystal, Randy, DJ, Shannon, Lish, their families, and the "anonymous" donor who matched the 50/50 raffle amount won!

Love,
Kim, Erin, Jeff, and Jean

It was such a special night! I can't wait to hear how much was made from the food/beverage sales- I heard someone say that they had more people there last night then they did on their opening night, which is so impressive.

Mike is blessed with truley amazing people all around him who care for him so much, and just the same, we are blessed to have him in our lives!

I wish I could have been there!!! I am so happy to hear that the event was such a HUGE success. $5,000 as the unofficial total is amazing, can't wait to see what the actual amount is. Mike is definitely an amazing brother, son, cousin and friend to all and it doesn't surprise me that there was such a big turnout at the Greene Turtle to support him. All of the fundraising efforts so far have been great and I know those in the future will be just as successful.

Please send my best to Mike!

Uncle Ray and I share everybody's enthusiasm for the success yesterday of the Greene Turtle fundraiser. It sounds like it was really something special - and we hated to miss it! But we were there in spirit and gratitude for the many dear friends of Mike and their support and loyalty and efforts to make this possible. It is pretty special - just like Mike. Congratulations and thanks to everybody. - Aunt Nancy
