By now most of you may be aware that Tom Perry, the long time commissioner and coach of Fleetwood, had a stroke in late January. Tom was transferred from the University of Pennsylvania Hospital to the Mc Gee Rehabilitaion Hospital. The move to rehab marks a milestone in Tom’s recovery. Tom is happier to be in rehab than the hospital because he knows he is one step closer to home. Tom still has a lot of work in front of him, but I believe he is up to the challenge.
As a showing of appreciation for all that Tom has done throughout the years, a Beef & Beer will be held on Saturday, April 25th, the profits of which will go to assist Tom and his family make it through this time. The Beef & Beer is a co-ordinated effort between Tom’s friends, football & cheer, lacrosse, wrestling, Lenape Pride Club and all the other people and groups Tom has touched.
Specifics for the Beef & Beer are as follows:
A Beef & Beer Fundraiser for the Perry’s has been planned for Saturday, April 25th at the Cresent Shrine Hall in Westampton. Buffet dinner, live music,dj & cash bar. Tickets are $35- see the Yaffa’s, Maricondi’s, Long’s or Montgomery’s for tickets - or send an email to friendsofTomPerry@yahoo.com for more details!
