Benefit brings outpouring of ‘love’

Editor, OBSERVER:

The friends of Annemarie Johnston wish to express their gratitude to all who made the benefit for her family such a great success.

Sister Corona and St. Columban’s on the Lake donated food, The Conservation Club provided the venue and Dunkirk Rocks painted “Feel the Love” rocks to promote the event.

Beyond that, the generosity of so many area merchants contributing to the raffles and the music of One Boomer made for a wonderful afternoon, celebrating a friend, colleague, wife and mother.

Finally, thanks to all of the hard-working volunteers who brought it together, stepping up without being asked to support this cause. The motto for the fundraiser was “Feel the Love” and the Northern Chautauqua community truly put those words into action.
