Dear Fellow KCBS Competitor;
It is with great regret that I am sending this request, but also in celebration of the life of Jean McMann. Jean, the wife, partner, friend, advisor, of Bill McMann, and also a fellow KCBS competitor, lost the battle to cancer on Friday April 11, 2008.
Jean was the original organizer of the Danville Virginia Pigs in the Park, with her husband and teammate Bill McMann. Jean may have lost the battle to cancer, but she has the victory over death through her relationship with Christ Jesus her savior.
Jean and Bill were scheduled to compete at Kings Mountain NC last weekend; however that was not God's plan. Bill has asked that any donations be made to the MDRT Foundation ( http://www.mdrtfoundation.org/about.html ) that provides many contributions through the world, but especially contributions for cancer research.
I was able to meet some of you at Kings Mountain, and some teams made a donation in Jean's memory. Our plans are to present a check to Bill at the award ceremony at the Pigs in the Park on Saturday afternoon. We would like to include every team in support of Bill, if you are willing to give something. Consider if every team gives just $50.00 (or more), which many of you have already done, we will be able to present a check for the MDRT Foundation in Jean's memory for over $2,500.00.
We would like to have the checks in advance, along with your team logo to include on the "oversized" check presented to Bill. Thank you to those who have already contributed, and to all of you that will be making a donation. Help us complete this in advance, as we are hoping to have at least a response (Y/N) from every team.
This will mean a great deal to Bill, especially since Bill and Jean have always considered all of us in the KCBS as family. Bill always does his best to make the Pigs in the Park a special event. Let us all help make this year special for Bill!
Thank you for your consideration to make a donation in Jean's memory. Please feel free to call me if you have questions.
