This week, I received this email from Jamie Langsdorf, a Robbinsville resident: 

Steve:

      The RBA – Pump It Up Fundraiser took place last night.  We had a great turnout (83 kids).  Through the help of the coaches, my wife and kids, Erin Calabro and many others (obviously including the Owners of Pump It Up – Nancy and Jim Cavalo) we were able to raise approx. $1000.

      I will give Don D. the poster board which all of the kids signed for Sean, print out the photos that were taken and the money this week.  I know that you are very close with the family, so I’d appreciate it if you could give it to the Nemazie family on behalf of the RBA and Pump It Up.

       Thanks. I've included a photo of the kids.

 

To Jamie, his family, Erin, Don, the Robbinsville Basketball Association Board and Coaches….THANK YOU!  The Nemazies are absolutely blown away by your thoughtfulness and generosity. I know you were not looking for any fanfare or publicity on this selfless and generous act… but I felt it warranted everyone knowing. 

Also, to Nancy and Jim Cavalo and the staff at Pump It Up (the inflatable party zone), many thanks! Frank and Kathy have promised to come bounce around for a while if they can do so without breaking anything.  Someday soon we hope, Sean will be in there doing backflips! 

Sean is having another productive week. He is eating pretty regularly (nothing solid yet…but he is getting there). There was also a report of him playing blackjack with his therapist and winning!  He continues to work hard in his physical therapy and slowly but surely is getting stronger.

More to come….  Steve
