National Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Well our first Ironton, Ohio BBQ Benefit to help support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month came to a close Saturday October, 23rd around 7pm.
"It's was a great day and a decent turnout on the short notice. I was very please with the turnout as we served over 200 people Saturday. The event raised a little more than $1800.00 for breast cancer awareness and research.
"My Mother, she had her first battle with Breast Cancer in the early 90s and this year she found out that she has liver cancer. Mom, God Bless her, found out about six weeks ago that her cancer is in remission and I know that she's humbled by the support she saw today.
My Father died of cancer in 2002, just 22 days after finding out that he was ill.

With every stride new hope for the future.
Thanks everyone for the support and hope to see you again next year!

I reckon, it was kinda "IN YOUR FACE" to that doctor who only gave him six months to live...
Cause we had a "David Ain't Dead Yet" party for six years in a row!
He got a kick outta that.
Attendance is down now, but we still have the party anyway.
It's about that time again; David was born on Halloween!
Awrighten.
I have to say very well done.
That is fantastic!
It was my first time working with my daughter doing a BBQ Sale. I normally will just cook and deliver it to her.
I had a great time and met some great people that I knew or came know.
Heads Up, I'm a talker...I've never meet anyone that I didn't know.
My daughter is the same way, very out going...
Here she is again sporting her new logo.
