BENEFIT FOR FAMILY MEMBER OF
RET. P.O. BRENDAN "JOE" Mc GARRY
Dear Friends,
On Oct. 16, 2008 at Mulcahy's in Wantagh from 7-11 PM
The New York Shields Pipes & Drums will be holding a benefit
for the child of PFC Daniel Fuentes, US ARMY. Danny was
killed in Iraq on April 6, 2007 while his fiance, Emma
McGarry, was pregnant with their child. Things being what they
are, she needs some financial help.
A donation of $50 per person is requested for an open bar, food,
DJ (thanks to Andy Greco, Transit SIU, who is donating his
services) and an appearance by the New York Shields Pipe & Drums
and more!
One of the reasons that the band is involved is that Emma
McGarry's father is one of our members and a very special
individual
Brendan "Joe" McGarry. Joe and his wife Kristine
have opened their home to literally hundreds of foster children
through the years and have adopted some of the foster children
that have passed through their home including those with physical
handicaps.
In his work on the job, Joe was a PBA delegate, POPPA (Police
Officer Providing Peer Assistance), President NYSFOP Transit
Police Memorial Lodge and NYS FOP VP Sector 4. As you can see, Joe
and his family are pretty special people and we are doing our best
to help them.
Any problems, questions or comments, please send to my E-mail
WMCMIL5317@aol.com
Thanks Bill McMillen
William McMillen
