Business participants, clients & friends,

Words cannot express how deeply grateful I am to every business, attendee, volunteer, and of course the incredible generosity of the Crowne Plaza Milwaukee-West. Together, over the past six years of “An Evening of Elegance” and other events, we have raised nearly $500,000 for Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin and Make-A-Wish® Wisconsin.

As some may be aware, 2016 brings my family its greatest challenge yet – preparing my son,
Marcus, for a full spinal fusion scheduled for this May. We have watched Marcus struggle as his back continued to deteriorate over the past four years and can no longer delay surgery. A major surgery for any teenager, Marcus also deals with multiple, complex medical issues as a child with special needs.

For these reasons, “An Evening of Elegance” will not be held this year, as I will be focusing my time, energies and resources on the intense rehabilitation and care needed just to prepare Marcus for his surgery, so he can have the best possible outcome to improve the quality of his life.

It is my hope and prayer that Marcus have a successful surgery and recovery so that we can hit the ground running in the fall to plan for the seventh annual “An Evening of Elegance” in the spring of 2017.

I am sincerely thankful for everyone who has donated their time, talents and energy to make this event possible year after year. A true testament to what can be accomplished when we all come together for the greater good.

Our family deeply appreciates all of your thoughts and prayers for Marcus’ surgery and recovery. Should you wish to learn more about Marcus’s journey please visit: www.MissionMarcus.com

Warm Regards,
Tammy Flynn
