PUNCH CANCER in the GUTTER

Posted by Family on January 29th, 2011

Written on behalf of Casey by his mom…..

Sorry for the long delay. We’ve been through a lot over the last few months, beginning in November. Casey started having problems with his speech and reading abilities and it was necessary for him to go on short-term disability. He’s been living with us in Mankato as at this time cannot live by himself.

Just want you to be aware of a benefit being put on by Proximity/BBDO.

WHEN: February 13, 1-4 pm
WHERE: Elsie’s Bowling Center
729 Marshall Street NE
Minneapolis MN
WHAT: $20/person or $30/couple (kids are free)
(gets you two games of bowling, shoes and snacks

Plus, there will be a Silent Auction offering tickets, trips, art, restaurant gift cards & More

CAN’T MAKE IT? Cash donations may be sent to:
Casey Quinn Benefit Fund
US Bank
Midtown Exchange Office
2929 Chicago Avenue, Suite 199
Minneapolis MN 55407

Thanks for your support, thoughts and prayers for Casey. He’s unable to use the computer without assistance but still appreciates hearing from everyone and hopes to see improvement quickly.

  1. Tell Casey that I am praying for him and that we missed having him on the M. D. Anderson ski trip this year. The weather and snow were great. If I lived closer to Minneapolis I would surely attend the benefit at Elsie’s.

    Hey there, Neighbor Boy ~~~
    I’m thinking of you on this late Saturady night…. Sending you a hug, whether you’re in Mankato or just down the hallway.
    Loved seeing so many folks out to support you last Sunday, and am hoping you felt how very loved you are by so many.
    I’m looking forward to brighter days for you and more opportunities to hang out together!
    I mean seriously, how can I make a late night run to Taco Bell without YOU?
    Get better, damn it!
    LOVE to you –
    Steven
