A benefit for Pat Hickey will take place from 4 to 10 p.m. Saturday at Moose Lodge No. 1351 in LaGrange.
Hickey is an 11-year breast cancer survivor, whose cancer has returned and spread to her bones. She is undergoing chemotherapy treatments. The money raised will help pay medical expenses.
The benefit will feature entertainment, food, raffles, a silent auction and a 50/50 drawing. Entertainment will include Drum and Wires, Spectre, Rachel Swallows and disc jockey Ed Steams. Hickey will perform a comedy routine, as will Marc Satterfield.
Hickey is employed at Indiana Custom Trucks/Aluminum Cargo Trailers in LaGrange, which has organized this benefit. Company officials are asking for donations of items to be auctioned off, as well as cash for the 50/50 raffle.
Donated items can be taken to ICT’s office at 2840 N. Ind. 9 and monetary contributions can be taken to any Farmers State Bank location, made payable to the Pat Hickey Benefit. For more information, contact Deb Patrick at (260) 463-7983.
