Dear Heroes,

The Philadelphia Zoo Walk for the National Kidney Foundaiton was a resounding success.  As of this writing there has been close to $500,000.00 raised in total.  The Boomers for Roy team raised close to $600.00 thanks to the generosity of family and friends... and next year we're going for $1,000.00.

The day of the walk was like a special order, bright, sunny and warm....the perfect weather for a vistit to the zoo.  I haven't been there myself in forever so I truly enjoyed it.  I found myself acting as the animal information guide for Kathy and Chucky (my team).  They produced the t-shirts and buttons for our team.  Great Job !!!!

The turnout was overwhelming as there were many teams of family and friends lost to kidney disease or who  have received transplants.  The zoo was busy that day with over 1,000 enthusiastic walkers making their way through the exhibits. 

I feel this will become a tradition for me and look forward to next year.

Thank you for your support and prayers.  God Bless You.
