To know Rachel is to love her. She has always been there for her friends & family and now we are going to be there to ease the load she is carrying. Rachel was diagnosed in September 2021 with Stage III ovarian cancer. She has already begun chemotherapy and is being scheduled for surgery which will then be followed by more chemotherapy. Rachel has been unable to work since her emergency room visit on September 23rd. All money raised at this benefit will go directly to Rachel to pay for her daily living expenses as well as her mounting medical bills. Tickets are $25 each and will include a pasta dinner. Event will be held at Filomena's Restaurant in Waterford, 12 noon until ? There will be gift basket raffles (yes! we need donations to make this a huge success) there will be live bands (if you can volunteer time play, please send me an instant message!), there will be lots of friends and family present to share about this wonderful woman.
