Horrocks Team - Tour de Cure

Dear loyal friends and readers of this blog:

I hate asking for money, but I really want to do this ride with my work's team in this tour - that means I personally have to raise $150 dollars. So I plead with you to reach into your pockets and pull out your debit/credit cards and click over to my donating page.

Here is my page you can donate at: CLICKY THIS

Here is my team page you can see the Horrocks Team joint-effort progress: CLICKY HERE

I have 25 days to the ride. Google reader says I have 66 readers - if all 66 of you donate $2.27 I will have reached my goal.

Please remember my dad in your donations, and my poor uncle ron. No, they are not brothers - but they are equally handsome fit men who both suffer from this pancreatic disease. Think of years to come when they will go blind or loose limbs - unless we find a cure. Or worse yet, think of all the ridicule they must suffer at our family get-togethers where we make fun of them for having this disease.

Thank you.

PS. Here is a picture of my Dad.

I just realized that the donations amount has a minimum of 5$ - so lame. If you want to give me $2.27, or just your pocket change, I will happily accept it and make sure it gets into the funds.

wow, I am already blown away that people are donating. Thank you everyone!

  1. I blame Ryan, he's at the root of all the teasing. But then he always has been.

  3. I have 0$ in my bank account at the moment, but when I get more $$ I will donate 5$. Hopefully I remember. I will try SO hard to remember.

  4. I HAVE to donate. Only because this picture looks like your dad is dying, and he's mad as hell about it.

  5. Thank you, Mary (especially for the bonus penny)! And, Chris, thanks in advance to you as well - even if you forget.

  6. YOu are welcome. Money comes in tomorrow, lets hope I remember then! Oh yeah, your dad is really handsome. So much so that at first I actually thought it was a joke and that was some model you found online until I looked again and realized you two are clearly related because of your faces.
