With it being the end of April, I gladly donated to the Lustgarten Foundation today in honor of those of my Facebook connections who publicly listed their birthdays last month. And I chose that charity because of the lady in this picture -- my "surrogate" grandma Joanne Dearth, who passed away from pancreatic cancer a few years ago (after outliving her diagnosis many-fold, I might add).
See below for the designated charities for the rest of the year, and since she was such a fan of this artist, see his stripped down version of "Home" at the youtube link provided. Joanne -- you are much missed.
