The Kahler Klassic Golf Tournament was unbelievable. Joe was so excited, but it didn't compare to the actual event. The day was full of fun, tears, laughter, gratefulness, hugs, beautiful weather, good food, prizes and most important the best support group we could have ever imagined. Joe woke up this morning and said "That was the best day I've had in a year!". Talk about a boost. There are so many people to thank for all of this between the volunteers, contributors, supporters, attendees and sponsors. I do want to thank the guy that made this happen. Ray Rawlins called us and said he wanted to do this for Joe. We resisted, he insisted and hence, it happened. We just can't thank him enough. From there, with the help of some amazing volunteers and the generosity of so many, we had a huge, successful day. We had 160 people (and one dog :)) join us for the day. We net $6000 for families that are fighting rare cancers. One of the recipients, Erin was actually there in person. We were able to surprise her and her husband Charlie, at the event. It was so great. We just wanted Erin and some other recipients to know that "No One Fights Alone". We are all there for each other and each and every one of you have been there for us. There is no greater feeling in the world. We Love you all so very much! The Kahlers
