I wanted to say thank you to all of you! Everyone that donated items, time and money to the benefit.
Together as a community we banded together to support and give Davey the absolute best chance of walking again. We showed the Merchant family that they are not alone in this journey that they have hundreds of people lifting them up.
I do want to say a few special thanks to a few people that went above and beyond.
