Welcome to this evening’s gala and thank you so much<br />

f<strong>or</strong> supp<strong>or</strong>ting us in our eff<strong>or</strong>ts to help cancer patients<br />

in South Texas. This devastating disease has affected<br />

so many people in our community and we are no<br />

different. We were f<strong>or</strong>tunate to have the resources to get<br />

us through that difficult time. Some are not so lucky.<br />

Many patients depend upon the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong><br />

<strong>Society</strong> f<strong>or</strong> transp<strong>or</strong>tation and other necessary resources<br />

to help them through their journey with cancer. Please<br />

consider extending your supp<strong>or</strong>t by donating to the<br />

raffle, silent and live auctions and other fundraisers<br />

tonight to help the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong> <strong>Society</strong> expand<br />

their help to these patients.<br />

We thank our guests, spons<strong>or</strong>s and all of the hard w<strong>or</strong>king<br />

individuals who served on the many committees created to<br />

hold an event of this magnitude. Because of your eff<strong>or</strong>ts,<br />

we all made this a sell-out event! Enjoy the evening!<br />

A longtime friend of the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong> <strong>Society</strong>,<br />

Don Strange, the patriarch of the internationally<br />

renowned catering company, Don Strange of Texas<br />

Inc., passed away Wednesday, November 11, 2009<br />

at the age of 69. Don Strange and his wife Frances<br />

were the Co-chairs of the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />

<strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s <strong>Gala</strong> in 2009.<br />

Strange is best known f<strong>or</strong> his larger than life<br />

presence, passion f<strong>or</strong> his family and his life-long<br />

love of Texas cuisine. Don Strange is often credited<br />

by many f<strong>or</strong> putting Texas on the culinary map.<br />

Don was part of the <strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s <strong>Gala</strong> from the<br />

beginning. Starting with the first <strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s in<br />

Dallas, Don created the signature menu and style of<br />

<strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s.<br />

As the <strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s expanded — cities across<br />

Texas called on Don Strange to help them create<br />

successful events.<br />

Over the years Don helped the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong><br />

<strong>Society</strong> raise millions of dollars f<strong>or</strong> the fight against<br />

cancer by creating incredible parties that kept guest<br />

coming back year after year.

Help a Patient<br />

on the Road<br />

to Recovery<br />

Those diagnosed with cancer face many<br />

medical, physical, and emotional issues<br />

surrounding the disease. <strong>The</strong>ir only hope<br />

can mean hundreds of trips to doct<strong>or</strong>s,<br />

specialists, hospitals, and treatments.<br />

This presents a serious challenge f<strong>or</strong> those<br />

who do not have access to transp<strong>or</strong>tation to<br />

get to their treatment. Without treatment<br />

their hope is gone.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>American</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong> <strong>Society</strong>’s patient<br />

transp<strong>or</strong>tation program ensures these<br />

patients a ride to their life-saving<br />

treatment and gives them a whole lot of<br />

hope. Methodist Healthcare Ministries has<br />

donated $100,000 towards this program.<br />

Our goal is to match that amount. During<br />

the gala you will have the opp<strong>or</strong>tunity to<br />

give to this imp<strong>or</strong>tant cause, if you are<br />

unable to attend you can make a donation<br />

using the enclosed replay card.

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Cattle</strong> Baron’s <strong>Gala</strong> was founded in Dallas in<br />

U.S. duplicated the model. In 1979, the gala came to<br />

San Antonio. Since then, it has become the largest<br />

fundraising event f<strong>or</strong> the local chapter of the <strong>American</strong><br />

<strong>Cancer</strong> <strong>Society</strong>. It has netted m<strong>or</strong>e than $7 million f<strong>or</strong><br />

cancer education, supp<strong>or</strong>t, research, and advocacy.<br />
