SUBJECT: UPDATE TO NOTE ABOUT Margaret Vechhione ("Em")
FROM: LINDY BOWERS
Our line dance family has lost another dancer/instructor and lovely lady to the scourge of cancer. She went by "Em", but her full name was Margaret Vecchione, in case anyone would like to make a contribution in her memory to either the American Cancer Society or Hospice Of The Comforter. I will have envelopes out and a basket for donations on Let's Dance Day, Sat., May 13th.
UPDATED NOTE FROM LINDY:
The gal from the Cancer Society (and Em's DPOA and Executor) was going through some of Em's things yesterday and discovered a 'last wishes' list. Em had wanted donations made to an animal rescue group called Poodle And Pooch. So, I am adding envelopes for that organization as well as the other two. In case you want to donate on your own to any of these worthy causes in her memory, her full name was Margaret Vecchione. Em would be happy to know that her little dog has found a good home with one of the Hospice nurses.
She had only 2 relatives...her 92 y/o mum in England and a cousin in California (who has terminal cancer also), so we (her line dance family) were her family in every meaningful way. RIP, Em....we will miss you!
LET'S DANCE

NOTE FROM ME: How great that her little dog has a new home. I love that.
