Audi Best Buddies Challange

I recently found out about this event called the Audi Best Buddies Challenge.
Best Buddies is an organization that gives opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
This is a fund raising event. I pledged to raise $1550.00. Anyone can contribute and I have decided that the funeral home will match 100% of all donations made.

Any and all donations are greatly appreciated!

Out with the old, in with new!!!

At the beginning of March, my old cold storage broke down on me. It would have cost me a very MINIMUM of $1000.00 to fix. As it was, around $300-$500 were being put into it every 4-6 months to refill it with freon. I was fortunate enough to have a friend lone me a small two person cooler to help give me some time to decide what to do. After MUCH though and research, I finally decided to have a walk-in cooler installed. In the long-run, it will be much better for me in MANY ways! Here are some before, during and after pictures!!!
