What a wonderful event!!!
We raised a lot; I don’t know exactly how much or if it was more or less than last year’s Cabernet, but that doesn’t make it any less spectacular than it was. It was the best. There is nothing anyone can put into words that describes the excitement there, gobs of beautiful young volunteers opening doors and giving directions, the swizzling glasses and smacking lips in the wine tasting rooms, the careful and orderly arrangement of the displayed silent auction items and the constant, hum-drum pace of the auction. The talks that Neil, Alexandra, and Dick Grace gave so eloquently brought home the Family House Mission and of course having the Ferrick Family there with young Jay’s presence on the stage left no doubt about what the evening was for. I know we raised over $500,000 on people just raising their numbers, to say nothing of the rest of the wine and other items. It was absolutely the best!
Congratulations to all who had anything to do with this spectacular event. Anyone there and all those who were not able to make it, can not help from being so proud to be a part of Family House. We may not be the greatest, but one thing for certain: there are none better.
Thank you Neil Committee and all the many others that made this possible.
Debbie and Art Ablin
