In Support and Friendship of Bob and Shirley Stahl
Last year Bob was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. What is ALS? It's a progressive, disabling and fatal disease. With time, walking, speaking, eating, swallowing and breathing become more and more difficult.
The Stahl family has a need for handicap home renovations. Their most basic needs, that we all take for granted every day, are becoming increasingly difficult. We have already received some donations of time to work on this project but we still have to pay for the supplies.
Bob's Grandpa Mietz was the founder of the milk hauling business. When Bob and his brother Arnie were old enough, they took over and became the co-owners of Stahl Bros. Milk Hauling. Bob was also a dairy farmer for many years. He served on the board of directors of Niagara Milk Co-op for 15 years as well as church council at Trinity Lutheran of Wolcottsville for 12 years, 6 of those years as President. He is an exempt member of the Wolcottsville and Terry's Corners fire hall. He was also a member of the Bergholtz Insurance Company for 15 years. He was a member of Farm Bureau and Committee member of the ASC office. Bob also served as a councilman for the Town of Royalton for 12 years. He has always done his civic duty and given back to his community in many, many ways. Now we have the chance to give back to him.
A spaghetti dinner fund-raiser will be held on Sunday, July 20th from noon-5 at the Wolcottsville Fire Hall. Kids 5 and under eat for free. There is a special 20.00 ticket that includes one dinner and a chance at 10 items valued at 100.00 or more, you do not need to be present to win. We will also have a 50/50 drawing and a large basket auction. We have had a special donation of 4 tickets for the 2009 Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee. The tickets are 10.00 a chance and only 500 tickets will be sold. If you would like to make a donation or buy a ticket, please feel free to contact any committee members.
