Bob’s message – things happen for a reason, not by chance as well as a strong message of hope!
• Arlene Williams, once again did a great job with the invocation.
• Alan Pederson and Mitch Carmody performed his new song, titled “HOPE” it was very, very moving.

• Nicko came up on the stage to accept his prize and he said, “I am so happy because my wife and I have never been there before!” He then announced to the room, that he would donate it back to Healing Hearts.
