Last minute replacement band needed for charity benefit

From Craigslist comes word of a benefit for parapalegic Elliot Williams of Smithfield. The Smithfield Jaycees are throwing a BBQ for him on April 25th, and it seems that the band that was booked for that night had to cancel.

Elliot has opened his home up as sort of a halfway house for those in need, and has been in much need himself, having made modifications to his car and home to suit a man confined to a wheelchair. I’ve known him since I was child and have watched him raise his 4 children.

I’m still waiting confirmation back on the situtation and will pass on any word when I get it.
