HAMANN FAMILY BENEFIT
From Tragedy to Triumph

Whoever said good things can’t come out of a bad thing?  The accident that took the life of two wonderful people
in our community has brought much glory to the Lord.  Yes, my husband, Mark, went to be with the
Lord at the young age of 53, but God had used this to bring many friends, communities and businesses together. 
Over 400 people were served during the spaghetti benefit at the Lowell VFW on February 6th. 
There was $14,000 raised to help out our family.  What a wonderful blessing!

We would like to offer a special thanks to the kitchen crew, Serene, Chris, Leah, Robert, Darrell, Michelle,
and JoAnne for such a wonderful job.  There was never a wait in line for food.  Also, special thanks to
Jenny Appenfeldt and the 4H folks for all their help.  Special appreciation to John and
Marti Stanton for donating their time and help, also the use of the VFW hall in Lowell. 

Blessings to Darlyn Pfeiffer for generating great things from the auction that afternoon. 
Also a very, very special thank you for the anonymous donor of the 19” TV for the auction,
also the anonymous donor who paid for the food and also made a very generous donation to the benefit. 
The community’s support has been (to borrow a phrase from Darlyn) fabulous! 
This proves that there is still much good in the world-God is good! 
Remember always trust in the Lord and lean on him and others for support. 

A special appreciation to Thrivent for Lutherans who donated $3,000.00 toward the Hamann benefit. 

On behalf of Sharon, Thomas, Erin, Melvin and Vivian Hamann, Ken and Beth Eckert and families we
would like to express a heartfelt “thank you” and God’s Blessing to all the donors listed below as well as
all the people who donated their time and talents. 

Special thanks to Dan and Lori Schey, Greg and Debbie Schaller.  Blessings to Chris and Cherie Behymer and family.  
A special “shout out” to our DJ, Scott Nolan of High Energy DJ Service, for not only entertaining us,
but also for assisting with the auction and other raffle prize drawings. 

The community’s support has been tremendous!  Please forgive us if we’ve missed anyone. 
May God bless you all as you have truly blessed our family!

Let us not forget there is another family hurting in this community. 
Our prayers and thoughts go out to the family of Joel Cahoon. 
Thank you Melissa, James, Danielle, Debra and Marie for all your support. 
May God sustain you and carry you through this all.  We are praying for you.
