Division #1 members Stephen McDonagh, Mike Morley and Kevin Ellis with Event Organizers at the Benefit for Luke Event at Rory Dolan's |
A benefit
was held this past weekend at Rory Dolan’s in Yonkers for a young man who is battling
bone cancer. Luke Gallagher is 11 years old and is the youngest of seven
children. He was diagnosed with
Osteosarcoma and has already gone thru many treatments of chemotherapy as well
as several surgeries to have his legs reconstructed. He is currently in the process of learning to
walk again but is still facing at least another 10 rounds of chemo in the
future. Luke older brother Eoghan serves
as the Financial Secretary of the AOH Division #17 of New Rochelle , New York .
Capacity Crowd at the Benefit for Luke in Yonkers |
The event,
which was in the planning stages for several months, featured live music,
dancing performances, gift basket raffles and an autographed sports memorabilia
auction. A very special 70 foot long “gaming trailer” was also brought in so kids could
spend time playing video games throughout the day.
