We just want to send out a HUGE thank you to all of you who came to the event or made donations to the event because you couldn’t make it.  The night was a success and we know that next year it will be much bigger.  No matter how many people came this year, we are always humbled by how many of you are out there supporting what we want to accomplish.  We couldn’t make a donation like this to PCH without you and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We were flattered that Dr Eshun and “A” came out to the event in support of us.  When Dr Eshun showed up it was as if a movie star had walked in to the room!  So many people are so thankful for him and his team…I hope they know that!  We truly trust him with our sons life and with the lives of these other children that are fighting this disease and that’s why we wanted to help donate to his trials.  We believe in him and we believe that he would do all that he could to try and find a cure for Neuroblastoma.

There are two bit of info I want to fill you in on…during the comedy show, Boomer let you all know that if you make a donation in the envelope or on our website of $25 or more, we would be sending you 2 tickets to a show at Stand Up Live.  This still applies to all of you and even those who weren’t there!!  If you want to make a donation on our site, note your donations “Comedy” and you will get 2 free tickets to Stand Up Live!

Those of you that were at the event saw the amazing pendent that Scott Berger from Addison Taylor Jewlers makes for our Foundation.  Many of you told me how great it was and we want to let you know that the sterling silver one is available at any time from Addison Taylor.  You can call Scott and have one made for your for $250 and 20% of the proceeds comes back to the Foundation.  Please email me at lmorton@thejackmortonfoundation.org if you want me to get you in touch in Scott!

Of course I cannot finish this post without sending out some thank you’s of my own…thank you to Boomer for helping up pull things together and for making this happen for us.  Thank you for wanting to help and for wanting to make it a success.  We look forward to doing it again next year!!  Thank you to Jill Bryan, Travis Thurman, Mark Cordes, and Rich Vos for taking the time to come out and perform for us!  Thank you to PCH for letting us team up with you…especiall Meghan Pearce and Geneivieve Villegas for helping us with it all!  Thank you to Sue Dunn for all your help and running around that you did for me!!!  Life saver!  Big Thank you to my sister Nikki for always helping me with pretty much everything.  I can say that there is no way I would have pulled this off without you!  Thank you to my husband Zac who lets me get totally crazy and I am sure a bit moody when I am fully stressed with putting this all together.  Thank you for supporting me with everything!  Love you!

I am sure there are so many more people to think but I am going to cut it short for now.  Thanks to you all!!
