Benefit BBQ for Charlene Travis ~ Denver, NC

Benefit BBQ for Charlene Travis

Transplants from New Orleans 20 years ago, Herman and Charlene Travis decided to make Denver, North Carolina their home. Both generous beyond imagination are now finding themselves in need of help. Everyone here knows Herman, he’s always friendly; my husband has worked with him a few times in the past and he always takes time to say “Hello, how ya doing”.

Charlene is suffering from a disease called Sarcoidosis. The late football player Reggie White and comedian Bernie Mac suffered from the same disease. It is an inflammatory disease that affects the organs. It can cause the immune system to “overreact” damaging the body’s own tissues. This disease first showed up in Charlene’s lungs in October 1998. From there it has gone to her liver, but in the process she has difficulty swallowing and breathing, due to fluid building up in her diseased lungs because her liver is not functioning properly.

She has just been put on a nationwide transplant list. There is one procedure that she could have, to buy some more time, but if it is not successful then it would speed up her need for a transplant drastically and essentially she would be moved up to the top of the transplant list. Whether she has this procedure, their main goal is to help Charlene have a decent quality of life.

The Travis’ have insurance to help offset the costs of Charlene’s medicine, which is great, but there is still a difference and there are other living costs that are not covered. In an effort to help them a Benefit BBQ will be held this Saturday.

If you are not able to attend but would like to help please pray for Charlene and her family.

DENVER is CLOSE TO SEEING ~ SALLY'S YMCA ~ (LAKE NORMAN, NC)

Denver is getting a YMCA ~ Sally's Y

Denver is in the process of getting a YMCA! It is something that I have heard since they finished the Lincolnton YMCA several years ago; even with the rapid growth in the Denver area there wasn't an urgency until David and Jo Clark got involved.

On April 4, 2004, their only daughter Sally McKenzie Clark and her cousin Anna Grace Jordan were tragically killed in a car accident by a drunk driver. Both girls were only 19 at the time, with a lifetime of plans and dreams ahead of them.

After Sally's death, her family and friends decided to create a lasting memorial in her honor. They wanted to not only remember her life, but they also wanted to celebrate what she loved. With Sally's love of God and passion for sports and the outdoors Sally's parents came up with the idea to build a YMCA in her name. Included will be a Chapel in Anna Grace Jordan's name. Jo Clark and other members of Grace's family have contributed the money for the memorial.

With this David and Jo Clark have donated about 50 acres off of Optimist Club Road at the new four-lane Highway 16; said to be worth around $1,000,000 for the proposed site. Along with this they are donating their share of the wrongful-death lawsuit settlement estimated at $283,000. YMCA supporters have already raised close to $6 million of the $7 million they need to raise before construction on the building can begin.

The next scheduled fundraiser for Sally's Y. Will be a dinner theater; the event is the play "Chicago" which will be presented by Grant Ewing and the Verdict Ridge Backyard Players.

The Dates: September 19 - 20, 2008
Time: 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
Location: Verdict Ridge, Denver, NC
Event Cost: TBD
Contact Info: (704) 489-6881
