Caring For "Our Own"

HotKarz is going to ask a favor of every reader. We are asking for your prayers for Shirley DiMambro, a member of the car folk community who has been diagnosed as having a brain tumor.

Many of you already know Dan & Shirley DiMambro of the MAVReC Car Club of the Lewiston/Auburn area. Dan is the "Music Man" at several of the cruise night locations in the area, including the Big Dipper (Lisbon Falls) and Roy's Steakburgers (Auburn). Fine folks.

Shirley will be going to the hospital this Oct or Nov to try and have the tumor removed. They would very much appreciate all your prayers. It will be a very hard winter because they do not have insurance to cover this, and will not have her income for about 3 months - that's how long she will be laid up. So the only income will be Dan's disability.

We hope that each of you will keep Shirley and Dan in your thoughts and prayers. Perhaps you could also ask your Pastor, Priest or Rabbi to ask his or her congregation to also pray for her. There is a power to prayer that is not yet fully understood, but at HotKarz, we know from personal experience that prayer is a powerful thing.

Thank you.

Maybe at some of the cruise nights, you could hold fundraisers - 50/50, etc. for the rest of the season, and that would help.
