Our personal message:

Join us Saturday, May 17 for a special event at the Medford Boat Club (Medford, MA) to celebrate the life of Tony Puopolo and help raise money for the Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA).

The event will begin at 12:00 PM and will include a bocce tournament and a raffle of several outstanding items, including tickets to an upcoming New England Patriots game.    Even if you don't play bocce, you can join us for refreshments served in a beautiful setting.

The suggested donation for the event is $20 per person (children under the age of 18 are welcome to join us for free).  All proceeds will be donated to the PHA, an organization dedicated to supporting efforts to research, treat, and prevent Pulmonary Hypertension, a rare and deadly disease of the lungs and heart that Tony courageously fought for almost a year and a half.

You can make your donation online by clicking on the "Give Now" button.  Please add a comment indicating whether you will be attending the event and if you would like to participate in the bocce tournament.  If you cannot make it to the event and would like to make a donation of any amount, large or small, to PHA in Tony's memory, please feel free to do so.  If you prefer to make a donation by check, please send one payable to Pulmonary Hypertension Association to:

Karen Puopolo
26 Johnson Ave
Medford, MA 02155

If you would like to donate any refreshments or items for the raffle, please contact Karen at 781-488-4841 or karenpuop@comcast.net or Dan at 617-592-6961 or dpuopolo@eatonvance.com

Thank you for honoring Tony's memory with your generous support.  We hope to see you at the event!
