April 6, 2008 Thank you so much for participating and supporting the Dara Hatcher Foundation fundraisers in Bend, Eugene and Springfield Your many acts of kindness and generosity to my family, Dante and me will long be remembered. We are so humbled. I can't begin to tell you how relieved I am to be able to afford the co-pays at medical appointments, to pay our rent and utilities and to take care of Dante. As many of you know, I have been home from the hospital for three weeks recovering from several surgeries. My family is still in Bend helping Dante and me with daily living needs. I am feeling a little better each day and am getting much needed healing rest. The next phase of my treatment will be radiation beginning April 17th. I have an excellent oncology team and am looking forward to putting cancer in my past. Dante and I send each of you our most sincere appreciation for all you've done for us. We want you to know that you have lifted our spirits and reminded us of the goodness that surrounds us.

Dear Sounds Fast, Thank you very much for your generous donation for our First Annual Bend High Lacrosse Silent Auction. Our fundraising efforts were a great success and we could not have done it without you and your donation.

Thanks again for the great job and checking up with me. We will do biz again.

Thank you for supporting the 2012 Great Drake Park Duck Race! Attractive prizes like yours help sell tickets. Without your support, the race wouldn't have near the impact it does today. This year we surpassed the milestone of $1,000,000 donated to charities through the life of the duck race. Thanks again!
