Bill Solly Update 01-28-2010
From Bill's Son Randy:
Anyway, as most of you know by now, Dad suffered a spinal cord injury back in October and is currently residing in Neshaminy Manor skilled nursing facility in Doylestown. While he continues to undergo rehab, his progress is slow and it is unknown what functionality he will ever recover. In effort to be proactive, the family has decided to hold a beef and beer benefit to offset rennovation costs to the house when he eventually returns home. The benefit will be held on Friday March 12th at the VE (aka German Club) on Davisville Road in Warminster.
I've attached three flyers that you can feel free to download and distribute as you see fit (some of your businesses/organizations may frown on advertising alcohol, so there is a non-alcoholic one included). We'll also be holding 50/50's, basket raffles, and silent auctions during the event and are looking for donations as well. Anything goes, no matter how big or small. We have already received autographed sports memorabilia as well as authentic Phillies World Series jerseys. So if you have contacts or are interested in donating things for gift baskets, please contact me at this email address.
Finally concerning the event, there has been a TREMENDOUS outpouring of support and persons giving verbal confirmation (a testament to the type of person Dad is). In any case we are limited to a maximum of 350 people and tickets are going fast. We are trying to avoid selling tickets at the door, so if you are interested in coming, please mail your checks made out to "William Solly" to my address at:
758 Meadow Drive
Warminster PA 18974.
We have an checking account set up at First National Bank of Newtown so all proceeds will be tracked and go directly to his benefit.
Also, we have been working on setting up a blog so you all can log in and see his progress. It's almost done and I will forward you the address when its ready to roll.
Thanks again for all of you continued support, thoughts and prayers,
Randy
