Bowlathon honors Raymond Beltrami while raising awarness, funds for research

Wendi Lewis — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:01:17 +0000

Family and friends of Raymond Beltrami gathered at Ormond Lanes in Ormond Beach, Fla., on March 21 to participate in a Bowl-a-thon fund raiser to benefit mesothelioma research, and to raise awareness of this terrible cancer.

The event was organized by Tara Music, in honor of her father, Raymond Beltrami, who was diagnosed with mesothelioma in January 2008 and passed away just six short months later. She says, ‘Because I could not do anything to save him, I have felt the need to spread awareness about this horrific disease.”

For a $15 registration fee, participants received three games of bowling, lunch and a commemorative t-shirt. The event raised almost $1,000, and donations are still coming in!

You can help – mail your contribution to Tara’s attention at 11 Woodgate Court, Ormond Beach, FL, 32174. Proceeds will benefit the Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (MARF), which is dedicated to finding a cure for mesothelioma.
