ALS Raffle Winners Announced; Thanks For Your Support!

Courtesy of Mish.

I am pleased to announce the winners of the Les Turner raffle for the benefit of ALS research (Lou Gehrig’s Disease).

For those of you who may be unaware, ALS took my wife on May 16, 2012. I wrote about it the next day in My Wife Joanne Has Passed Away; Stop and Smell the Lilacs.

I started a raffle for the benefit of ALS research. Raffle proceeds were split 50-50.

Still others made cash contributions. Money came in from forty countries around the globe.

The drawing was Wednesday. I was present at the drawing but did not personally draw names. I did make a phone call to all the winners. Some we did not reach until later. Most winners released the use of their names, a few did not.

Since this was an international affair, I was hoping for at least one winner outside the US. We did get one, from Unionville, Canada.
