Rockin’ PF Out! A Concert For Awareness & Fundraising At The Lehrer – Nov. 2nd

Just what is IPF – Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis? That is the question I asked earlier this year when I learned that my brother-in-law, Bruce Williamson and my friend, Tommy Royer were seriously impaired by IPF. I have come to understand that this disease makes it increasingly difficult for oxygen to get into the blood due to progressive scarring in the lungs. In most instances doctors are unable to identify the cause of PF and the only real treatment is a lung transplant. Today both Bruce and Tommy are on the transplant list waiting for the call.

On Sunday, November 2^nd, Bruce and his wife Vickie will be hosting a Fundraiser & Awareness Concert at The Lehrer from 2.00 – 6:00 pm. A $10 donation is suggested with all proceeds to benefit the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation. Donate Life NW will also be there to convey the importance of organ donations.

Scheduled to appear at this event are Margo Tufo, John Bunzow, Karen Lovely, Rae Gordon, Kevin Selfe, Doug Rowell, Big Monti, Lisa Mann, Michael Quinby, Bruce Williamson, Ed Neumann, Franco Paletta, Ben Rice, John Mazzocco, Sonny Hess, Ron Tuttle, Dave Melyan, Timmer Blakely, Justin Matz, JT Thomas, Scott Franklin and Chad Rupp, along with many more. An “all-star” jam from will follow from 6-8pm.

Please plan on attending this worthy event, your donations are truly needed to help put an end to IPF. If you are unable to attend, Bruce has set up a fundraising page where you can make donations directly at www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/RockinPFOut The Lehrer is located at 8775 SW Canyon Lane, in Beaverton.

Hope to see you there, Doug Rowell
