As coworkers and friends from Kingsville Golf and Country Club, and Vernons Tap & Grill, we are hoping to raise support for our dear friend, Shirley Baltzer with her ongoing dental battle. As a mother and widow, Shirley has worked tirelessly as a server her entire life to support and care for her family and is now struggling to find the funds to support her own health.

The funds raised will contribute to the tens of thousands of dollars that Shirley has incurred in dental bills in past and future. Shirley is currently in imminent need of a complete tooth removal and dentures that she is having much difficulty funding on her own.

Here are a few words written by Shirley: "I have been informed that some blessed colleagues of mine want to raise money in order to help me with medical /health issues pertaining to my teeth. For years I have been struggling with a multitude of tooth fractures, abscesses, failed dental procedures, and infections that have put me in the hospital, on the brink of going septic. I have gone to lengths in attempting to contact my MPP and the local health unit, to only be told that the government would be helping people without benefits. This was good news, however I then in turn found out that because I am 63 and working, I do not qualify for this kind of governed support."

Any donation large or small, will be hugely appreciated. If you know Shirley, you know how wonderful, caring, selfless and hard working she is and how much this will mean for her quality of life and her well being. Thank you greatly, in advance, for any support for our girl Shirley!
