Yes, absolutely so. The JY sixth Foundation, or the Jorgon Eedy Foundation, was formed by my older brother and I in honor of our younger brother, Jorgan, who passed away from leukemia at age sixteen, and one of his last wishes for us was to create a foundation that raises money for pediatric cancer and gives back to organizations that helped him and our family during his cancer battle.

And there were some amazing angels that had a chance to work with him in the hospital towards the end, and I know he adored them.

Yes, absolutely, He and his nurses were very close, good buddies.

So the wonderful things you guys do for nurses and for others, And I just think it's really neat that you do what you do and the way you do that. You do some fundraisers throughout the year, and one of those is a golf tournament, correct, So come out has some fun and golf, goof around and here's some wonderful stories, and you're doing all of this for a good cause. How great is that?
