WHAT a wonderful afternoon was held in Maryknoll on Saturday in support of our son Brad.
A large group of his friends worked extremely hard to raise funds in various ways.
Head shaving proved a winner with about 26 wonderful people sacrificing their locks.
It is wonderful to see the amount of support from Maryknoll and the extended community for Brad.
The support received from both donors and sponsors was amazing.
To all who participated in this wonderful community event, please accept our heartfelt thanks.
Keith and Meryl Waterhouse,
Pakenham.
