Nancy C. Rogers, Wendy Krispin, Mary CroslandThe festivities spilled out onto the poolside patio and fire pit area, where the Rangers’ playoff game was playing on television. Wendy Krispin generously donated the wonderful and hearty hors d’oeuvres. Kate Rose Marquez and Holly Davis announced that Margot Perot, who was out of the country and regretfully could not attend, has agreed to be the luncheon’s Honorary Chair.
Cathy Thompson and son Justin, Tom Landry award recipientThe theme is “The Art of Romance.” “We’re going for the edgy side of romance – think very Johnny Depp,” said Kate Rose. Young Justin Thompson, a 6th grader from Trinity Christian Academy was chosen personally by Alicia Landry from many nominees to be the Spirit of Tom Landry Award Winner for his courageous battle with acute lymphocytic leukemia and for his strong spirit and many volunteer hours on behalf of the disease. Nancy C. Rogers, who was in attendance, will be the recipient of the Lynda Adleta Heart of Gold Award for her many years of overwhelming support of the cause. Gold Crown Valet Parking graciously donated the valet parking, and Glazer’s donated all the beverages.
