Rose of Hope 2008
OK, I know it's been awhile since my last blog entry. I know some of you were concerned about me, but I haven't fallen off the Earth. At least not yet.
Actually, I was on vacation, and then we had a holiday, and then I broke my martini shaker, and then the weather was so nice, I didn't feel up to it for a few days. (These blog entries take days of preparation, you see.)
Anyway, I swung by Greenfield Hill on June 11th for the eighth annual Rose of Hope luncheon in Tom & Patti Keegan's backyard.
Marcia Gay Harden (Bad News Bears, Pollack, etc, etc.) was the speaker this year. There wasn't a dry eye in the tent when she was through.
Here are some photos from the event...
Let's see, here are Ed Dulski from Yoplait, Kim Leistinger, Barbara Bellinger (one of the honorees) and Steve Jakob of Bridgeport Hospital
Donna Craft and Kristin Nick were all smiles.

Tom & Patti, the host and hostess.
Beth Davis and her husband, Andy Gleeman, who also were honored at the event for their ongoing support of the NFPBCC.
Three other Keegans turned out -- Anne-Marie, Arlene and Peggy.
