Hello Family and Friends, We are hosting our 12th annual memorial "Tista Blood Drive" in memory of our son Danny. In partnership with the NY Blood Center, and in collaboration with the Warwick Mason Lodge #544 providing their space.
It will be held on Saturday, June 26th from 10:00 am to 2:30 pm. See below for details, and the special guidelines established by the NY Blood Center.
One of Danny's intentions was to donate his organs, as he signed his driver's license – but unfortunately, we were not able to honor that. For the past years, this is our way to honor him, his memory, and how much he gave to others.
The NY blood bank is in urgent need of blood… we hope you can participate in this once again and sign up to donate. Please pre-register before. You can RSVP & inbox us to pick a time slot, or you can click on this link to schedule an appointment.
