Recently, my cousin John received a diagnosis of a highly aggressive form of lymphoma. He is currently hospitalized and getting ready to start an intense course of chemotherapy. Both John and Kelly are among the hardest-working people I know. Unfortunately, their restaurant has been struggling, and they had to make the difficult decision to shut it down permanently this week. They were in the process of searching for new job opportunities when John's diagnosis came to light.

Many of you are familiar with John and his family; they are the type of people who would lend a hand to anyone in need, even during their own hardships. Now, however, they find themselves in a situation where they need our support. I urge you to consider donating to help them through this challenging time. All contributions will go directly to John and Kelly.
