Vol. 19, No. 4 • October 2005 DancesDances BenefitBenefit CharitiesCharitiesLocal Businesses NearNear Sponsor Hurricaneandand FarFar Benefit BY BETTY THAYER Anyone seeing the news knows of the destruction Hurricane Katrina wreaked on the Gulf Coast. Many of us have family and friends impacted by this storm. All of us have felt a need to help. Radio station WRZN 720 AM and M&S Bank co-sponsored a dance on Sept. 17 to raise Amoney for the relief efforts. All monies collected will be going to the American Red Cross. When WRZN and M&S Bank contacted local businesses to help in this effort, On Top of the World Communities provided the location and many businesses donated the snacks. Don Bruce, the DJ at WRZN, provided the music. A $5 per person donation to the Red Cross was the admission to the dance. About 220 people attended the benefit dance, which raised approximately $1,823 for hurricane relief. Don Bruce wanted to bring the music they play at WRZN to those attending as a way to say thanks for their donation. The music, reminiscent of yesteryear, had everyone out on the floor. This was Pat and Don Hood’s second contribution to the hurricane relief fund and they felt that every little bit helps. Janet Abrahamson wanted to do her part to help the victims. Diann DeBari’s daughter lives in Ocean Springs, Miss., and was very lucky so Diann came to help others less fortunate.

    Käraste Micke med barn, Tillsammans med er sörjer vi en underbar persons hädangång, och medan ni har förlorat en hustru och en mamma har miljoner av beundrare världen över förlorat en vän och en inspirationskälla. Många av dessa kände att de hade velat prata med er, dela sina historier om Marie med er, om vad hon betydde för dem, och hur mycket hon har förändrat deras liv. Det ni håller i era händer är en samling av över 6200 berättelser, funderingar och minnen från människor ni förmodligen inte kän- ner personligen, men som Marie har gjort ett enormt intryck på. Ni kommer att hitta både sorgliga och glada inlägg förstås, men huvuddelen av dem visar faktiskt hur enormt mycket bättre världen har blivit med hjälp av er, och vår, Marie. Hon kommer att leva kvar i så många människors hjärtan, och hon kommer aldrig att glömmas. Tack för allt Marie, The Daily Roxette å tusentals beundrares vägnar. A A. Sarper Erokay from Ankara/ Türkiye: How beautiful your heart was, how beautiful your songs were. It is beyond the words to describe my sorrow, yet it was pleasant to share life on world with you in the same time frame. Many of Roxette songs inspired me through life, so many memories both sad and pleasant. May angels brighten your way through joining the universe, rest in peace. Roxette music will echo forever wihtin the hearts, world and in eternity. And you’ll be remembered! A.Frank from Germany: Liebe Marie, dein Tod hat mich zu tiefst traurig gemacht. Ich werde deine Musik immer wieder hören.
