The First Annual Walter Siecinski Blood Drive

The generosity of friends and members was clearly evident at the event arranged by Jack McCarthy and Marty Cameron to honor the memory of the late Walter Siecinski. 63 pints of blood were donated to the blood bank and all of it alcohol free. Hard to believe, I know.Though afterwards it was just as extraordinary that though weaked, almost delirious it was truly a miracle that some of our weaker donors had enough fortitude and clarity of mind to be even able to focus on restoring their sagging iron count let alone seek out the help of our own Arthur Guinness. This was the first in what will become an annual drive to honor Walter’s memory.
