Bernie & Phyl’s donates to the Jason Burgeson Scholarship Fund
Dear Naomi,
Our family just wanted to extend our warmest thanks to you for your generous donation to the Jason Burgeson Scholarship Fund. We do realize tha tmany organizations may solicit you for donations and we are honored that you feel our Fund is a worthwhile cause. We have set up this Mmorial Scholarship Fund so that his memory will live on forever. As it is impossible for us to go through life without thoughts of him… with the help of this Fund, others will remember him also. Jason lived life to the fullest during his 20 short years. He was a person with unparalledled charisma and boundless energy. We want everyone to know that Jason was here with us, that he did make a difference, and is continuing to make a difference even now.
When we established the Scholarship Fund we thought it would be one way of bringing something that is positive out of such a horrible tragedy; an unforeseen “positive” is getting to interact with such caring and thoughtful people and realizing how many lives Jason truly touched. With your help this year on May 18th, 2007 we did exceed our fundraising goal of $4000 and were able to give out one extra scholarship! Thank you.
Thank you for remembering Jason.
Warmest Regards,
The Burgeson Family
