Thank You
To The Community of Lemont, Soon after multiple members of the Lemont community learned of our daughter/grandaughter's life threatening brain tumor and surgeries they quickly mobilized to come to our family's aid and support.
Terri O'Neil, sometimes known as "the Angel of Lemont" immediately organized a week long local restaurant fundraiser at: Front Street Cantina, 3 Corners Grill & Tap, Stonehouse Pub, Slammers Bar & Grill , Nick's Tavern and This Must Be the Place.
These events culminated in an enjoyable successful "Hearts and Love for Ellie " benefit on Friday, February 11th at "This Must Be the Place" restaurant in Lemont. Terri O'Neil and her team of volunteers, sacrificed countless hours of time and energy to help our family
The community of Lemont came together to help our six year old Ellie and her fight against Brain Cancer. Donations for the auctions came from local businesses, local families, neighbors, teachers, friends and relatives of the family and anonymous donors. Two local bands, "Fort Awesome" and "Field Day" volunteered their time to provide entertainment.
The support of the community humbled us as a family. We received words of hope and encouragement and hugs of comfort. The efforts of this community, our neighbors, teachers, firemen, policemen, business owners, friends and family helped our family in a time of real need. We were surrounded by people who truly cared and wanted to help. Your kindness has given us strengh and energy. Thank you.
Lemont is beyond a doubt one-in-a-million.
We want to encourage everyone to continue the spirit of love and caring of our wonderful town, to join in future similar endeavors.
