Thank You!!!




Our big Ride to Cure Bake Sale has come and gone, and Elma and I want to extend our sincerest thanks to everyone who helped make it a HUGE success!

Nancy Boesch, Kelly Johnston, Karen Chotrow, Joyce Oakley, Laura Bunch Stroup, Charlie Parrott,  Ashley Shannon, Courtney Massey, Gina Harris (and daughters) Billie Hawkins, Vanessa Roman, Dorothy Boehm, Darleen Trumbo, Marilynn Shaver, Cindy Boehm, Sari Marie Rourke....thank you for the wonderful baked goods you made and donated to our sale. Hopefully I remembered everyone!

Diane Stecher, Lynda Harris, Mom Boehm, Mom Oakley, Marilynn Shaver, Gary Daughtery, Milton Boehm, Darlene Trumbo and Little Miss Bella...thank you for all showing up and helping with the event.

Courtney Jean the Flower Queen aka my amazingly talented niece Courtney Massey, as always you were a hit with your balloon creations. Thank you for not only spending the entire day away from your family to help our cause, but also for donating all your tips to our ride.

Karen of Karen's Kwik Mart...we owe you a HUGE debt of gratitude for allowing us to take over your parking lot for our sale.  If you're in the Barnhart area please patronize her store.

And finally, to everyone who heard about our bake sale and made the effort to come buy some of our goodies....THANK YOU!

We made over $600 at our bake sale, which means I have now met my goal and can participate in the Ride to Cure. We're still planning more fundraisers to help Elma reach her goal, the next being another bake sale with even more great offerings on June 28th from 10 am - 7 pm at the Wal-Mart located at 2201 Michigan Avenue in Arnold, MO.

I deeply appreciate everyone who has supported me in my Ride to Cure Diabetes, it's because of your generosity I get to fulfill my dream of participating in the Ride to Cure.  If anyone else would like to show their support I respectfully ask that you do it by sponsoring Elma's ride. She's been training every single day for months for this ride, and it would be a travesty if she wasn't able to get enough donations to participate.  If you click the link below it will take you to Elma's Ride to Cure participant's page.


Thank you all again for your love and support and Elma and I set out to kick diabetes ass!
