I would like to advertise a benefit sale we are having for my mother who has pancreatic and now liver cancer. This sale is going to help cover her final costs, she has been given 2 months(as of Aug 2008) so we are doing everything we can.

Her name is Carol Neeb and she has been a very loyal listener to B93 ever since it first went on the air. She has been to many many of the birthday bash's but can no longer attend due to her health going down so fast. She was diagnosed in Jan 2008 and was told back then that she had a timeline of 6 months to 1 yr. She is almost 8 months into her 1 yr.

She is no longer able to live alone so we had her move in with family instead of some nursing home and we want to make sure she knows how much she is loved and will be GREATLY missed.

The date of the sale will be Aug 29-31 2008 from 9 AM -???(whenever it slows down to nothing)

Place: 155 East Broadway Woodland Michigan

The items are being donated from approx. 9 different familes and will be a dontation type of sale. There will be NO set prices, just whatever anyone would like to pay.

There will also be a raffle ticket drawing for 1st,2nd and 3rd place items. Cost of the raffle tickets will be 1.00 each or 6 for 5.00
