> Monday evening
> Dear Phil,
> Doug Really needs to hear from you and some of the others. Please phone
> him when you get a chance.
> You see, this past Saturday our church held a benefit for Doug. We
> needed the financial help,but we also thought it would do some good for
> Doug emotionally.
> We had free hotdogs, manwich burgers and chili, lots of deserts. All
> you can eat, /Donations Only.
> /Seven groups of musicians and singers from 12 to 7 PM. Out of a town of
> over 2000 people, where Doug was raised, where our kids go to school,
> and he is related to over half of them, only 8 people from town showed up.
> Four bands, or groups cancelled at the last minute, none of our
> neighbors came, none of the people from any of the businesses here, and
> no other churches. Two of the men he has played in the band with didn't
> show. No one from the Moose (Lodge) he has been a "Brother" in since he
> was old enough. A town where Doug built and installed a fire alarm
> system for.
> It really hurt him, just made matters worse. It ripped my insides to
> see how cold and uncaring this town was.
> He knew the church ran it in the local paper and radio, and put
> fliers up all over town.
> I want you to feel free to give any of the guys our phone number or
> address. They can call anytime before 8:00 at night.
> All of you have been such a life line for us and such a blessing. We
> have had more warmth and love from the fellow techs and their families,
> than we have from people who watched Doug grow up and fight through 5
> open heart surgeries, not to mention they know his mom and dad passed
> away here.
> I just hurt for him. I sincerely appreciate everything all of you
> have done. Please keep us in your prayers, and I thank God for all of you!
