My personal message:

We hope you will join John's Team and walk with us on September 28th.The proceeds of this three mile walk will benefit Hospice North Shore and some of the funds will be directed to the Kaplan Family Hospice House.  As you all have heard, Kaplan House was John's home away from home for the last three weeks of his life. It is a very special place.  We want to help Hospice of the North Shore ensure that all families have the opportunity to receive the same care that John received from the amazing staff at Kaplan House. 

There is no need to sign up or register online to walk.  Please just let Mary (marinom@ci.amesbury.ma.us) or Debbie (dmarino@stjohnsprep.org) know if you are interested so we can add you to the list of walkers.  The walk begins at 9am on the St. John's Prep campus located at 72 Spring Street in Danvers, Massachusetts.  For additional information: http://www.hns.org/CommunityEvents/WalkforHNS/tabid/105/Default.aspx

Everyone in the Marino family appreciates the donations that have been made already to Kaplan House.  If you are interested in donating for the first time or making an additional gift please donate through this website by clicking on Sponsor Me Now below so the gift is applied to our fundraising target.  More importantly, please consider joining us on the 28th to show our support for Hospice North Shore so they will see how grateful we are for the care they provided for John and so many other people. 

Thank you so much for your support.  Please forward this along to anyone you think might be interested in participating in the walk or donating to the cause.
