Holiday Gathering For Troops’ Families– December 17 , 2008
We at the Jeffrey Coombs Memorial Foundation know the pain of experiencing the holidays without someone we love. Whether it’s a permanent or a temporary absence, it changes the feel of the holiday and makes it difficult to completely enjoy all the blessings the holiday brings.
If only for a short time, we’d like to do something to help alleviate the void you’re probably feeling. On December 17, 2008, the Jeffrey Coombs Memorial Foundation is hosting a holiday party for families of troops who will be serving in Iraq and Afghanistan over the holidays, and families of wounded and fallen troops as a result of serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. My good friend Cindy McGinty of Foxboro, whose husband Mike was also killed in the 9/11 attacks, is helping me organize this gathering.
The event will be held at Gillette Stadium and will include children and teen activities and entertainment, a visit from Santa and gifts. There'll be something for all ages, and a visit from the Red Sox' Wally and Miss Massachusetts. We would be honored to have you and your family join us for a night of distraction, comradery, and fun.
