Memories

This is a special blog in memory of my nephew who passed away three years ago today from a blood clot at the age of 20. Klayton Baer was a special person who brought much sunshine into the lives of others. I helped my brother and sister-in-law create the Klayton Baer Sunshine Scholarship Fund to assist students from the Lenape VoTech School with their post high school education. Kathi, my sister-in-law, is in constant fund-raising mode.

I believe we should all get more exercise by reaching down and helping someone up. Kathi and my brother Ken do that. To date, they have reached out to four Lenape seniors, donating scholarships toward their college/trade school educations. What a wonderful way to honor Klayton’s memory.
