Please help cover Joe Bauer’s Medical Expenses

Casual acquaintances may not be aware that Joe was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic renal cancer. He is currently facing a significant number of health challenges, almost too numerous to list. Joe’s partner, Suzanne Smith, has been doing a remarkable job attending to his needs while at the same time trying to maintain the daily activities involved in making a living in the music business.

It’s not difficult to imagine oneself (or loved ones) in a similar situation. Suzanne and Joe’s close friends and family are supporting them in every way possible, but our hope is that those of us in a position to do so will help support them financially as well. It’s difficult to say specifically how these funds will be used, but there’s certain to be no shortage of bills.

Joe and Suzanne have an extended circle of friends, and we’ll need your help to spread the word to them. Good, old-fashioned Facebook and other social media are a great way to start helping spread the word. Be sure to direct them to this website.

Thanks much for your assistance with promoting this project!
