Picture of the Month came courtesy of Annette Murawski who I asked to photograph our immediate family who were able to attend the wedding reception for our nephew Joe Grabowski and his wife Anna. Thank you, Annette. Sorry to those who missed it. It was held at the beautiful Golden Mast on Okauchee Lake. Congratulations, Joe and Anna.
And a bunch of sports photos too. I even added one short movie clip of Matthew, as soccer goalkeeper, saving a penalty kick.
It's been beautiful fall weather so I hope it continues through October, one of my favorite months. The garden will be dug up soon and the snowblower has been tuned up.
Go Brewers!!!!!!
Several notes to remember from previous months--
Many of you know that my brother-in-law, Mickey, is dealing with kidney failure and is on the waiting list for a kidney transplant. Unfortunately that could take years. I want to reach out to all of you, over the age of 18 and in good health. If you're not aware, there is a National Kidney Registry which allows a living donor to help even if you are not a direct kidney match. Essentially, you can be screened and evaluated to be sure you're healthy enough to donate 1 of your 2 kidneys. Only the best candidates are allowed to continue and you definitely can choose to opt out at any time. The donated kidney can go into a national pool and Mickey jumps to the top of the list. Here's the link to the National Kidney Registry to begin that process. You would be doing great work. I'd be happy to answer any questions. I almost made it to the end of the evaluation process but did not make the cut. Thank you.
One NIL link for Charlie is here. Since the end of his freshman year, he's changed his number to 0.
The tremendous outpouring of support to 2 special causes in memory of Noah continues. Significant dollars have been directed to the Waukesha Catholic Tuition Assistance fund, plus a scholarship fund has been set up in Noah's name at Waukesha South High School. Noah is loved by so many. For those wishing to contribute to the scholarship fund, you can find further information here.
