YOUR GENEROSITY IS HIGHLY NEEDED

It is just shocking to realize that anybody's life could change in a fraction of a second. This is what happened to the Berry family as they were returning to Houston from vacation over the 4th of July weekend. Josh and Robin Berry and their three children (9, 8 and 6 years old) were in their SUV when hit head on by an oncoming car. Now the three children are orphans and undergoing intense medical procedures.

We all have problems and tragedies in our lives but I don't think any of us have (and I hope we will never) experience the horror these children are going through.

 

The Berry family had strong ties in the Cypress community and there will be a Lemonade Stand and Bake Sale to benefit the family at Suburban Girl Gifts and Stuff in Cypress this Saturday July 16 between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. Here is more information about this event: BAKE SALE 

Also, a trust fund has been setup so that you can donate in benefit of the Berry children. Here is the link to the site: Joshua and Robin Berry Children's Trust

 

The report of this tragic accident: KHOU News

 

I hope you have a chance to attend the bake sale and/or contribute to the fund.

DO YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR OWN WINE? RIGHT HERE IN HOUSTON?
I didn't even know we had a small winery right here in Houston. We visited it on a beautiful Sunday and I was very impressed with the operation.
