MONDAY 8/25/08 UPDATE- STAND UP TO CANCER AND HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MIKE & JULIANNA

Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) is a huge initiative to benefit cancer research that will culminate September 5th, with all 3 major networks dedicating air time to a fundraiser for the cause. Lori and Pam, Tina's co-workers, have started a Team DNF in honor of Jeff. If you are interested in making a donation or joining the team, please go to http://www.standup2cancer.org/ and join Team Do Not Fear.

Tina and Jeff were acting like they were on vacation today and slept in until 10:30am! Tina had errands to run and Jeff went along for the ride and lunch. As luck happens, Tina and Jeff ran into Coach Mike Etheredge & his wife, Julianna, at Ruby Tuesday's. Mike is a former Salem coach, current Rockdale coach, and since Jeff's been sick, he's consistently called to check on him weekly. Mike and Julianna were celebrating their 35th anniversary and ended up treating Jeff and Tina to lunch.

Still no bone marrow results back. As soon as Tina hears something, it will be posted.

Finally, Darlene is selling a lot of shirts and thus far, she has deposited over $1000 into the Jeff Blount Benefit bank account at the Bank of North GA. The shirts are available at her store, Serendipity for $10.00. Salem opens with Heritage on Friday night at Evans Stadium. Show your support and wear your shirts (then send me a picture of it)!

Jeff and Tina,
It was so good to see you today! the food and conversation was great! I'll share a funny story with you, 35 years ago, Mike and I went to Stone Mountain for our one day honeymoon, a pre-season football game was on TV, guess what we watched.... Tonight we were watching the football game and Mike said, "Things haven't changed much!" So true! Take care and we hope to see you again soom!
Hugs, Mike and Julianna
