As you may recall, Dave Niehaus, beloved Seattle Mariner's announcer, died on November 10. Dave had a relative with a food allergy and his family suggested donations to FAAN (Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network). Dave Niehaus' memorial will be at Safeco Field December 11. See the Seattle Times Mariner Blog
Michael San Soucie, who has been working closely with the Mariners and their peanut-controlled sections has agreed to collect donations from WA-FEAST members and he will be at the Memorial Service to present checks to FAAN to the family in Dave's memory.
Here are the details.....
Write check to: FAAN
In subject line write: Dave Niehaus
Mail to: Michael San Soucie (please e-mail leader@wafeast.org for the postal address)
We should try to get these in the mail by Dec. 7 so that they reach Michael in time. Michael will be willing to take cards or letters to the event as well and I am sure that the family will enjoy hearing about how much families appreciate the peanut-controlled sections at the Mariner's games.
If you prefer, you may use WA-FEAST's Paypal button found http://wafeast.org/How_You_Can_Help.html and list that you'd like the donation to be included in the FAAN gift. Your acknowledgement will come from WA-FEAST instead of FAAN but rest assured, we will pass along all of your gift.
Let's thank Dave and the Mariners for all they have done! And a big thanks to Michael for all his hard work on the memorial service gift and his untiring dedication to making major and minor league baseball more accessible to those with food allergies!
Of course you are welcome to donate to FAAN on your own without going through WA-FEAST!
