Adam shares more about our 2023 recipient alongside his family.

The Farley Open Committee is pleased to announce their support for Lily Mae Funk as the 2023 charity beneficiary. Lily was a happy child showing absolutely no signs or symptoms of anything being wrong until January of this year. On Wednesday, January 11th, Lily wasn't eating or drinking well, and her parents took her to see her pediatrician. It was recommended they take her to the hospital with concerns of dehydration. At the hospital, they discovered a solid mass in her abdomen and immediately sent her to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), for suspected cancer. On Friday, January 13, 2023, Lily was diagnosed with a high-risk advanced stage 4 neuroblastoma affecting her abdomen, chest, and neck. Her treatment is scheduled to last 18 months and will involve intense chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, stem cell rescue, and monoclonal antibody therapy. In early June she had surgery to remove a large tumor and is currently undergoing a stem cell treatment in between rounds of 5 and 6 of chemotherapy. Dana and Jason are the proud parents of Lily. Despite her diagnosis and grueling treatment, her parents say Lily is an absolute star at CHOP- entertaining the hospital staff and sharing her beautiful smile every chance she gets. She is their only child and their whole world. Jason works as a machinist and Dana worked as a dental assistant until Lily’s diagnosis. As a result of multiple trips to CHOP a week from their home in Allentown as well as the many side effects of Lily’s treatment, Dana has had to stop work to care for her daughter full-time. Lily’s family has been grateful for the outpouring of support but they know they still have over a year of treatment remaining. As a result of this loss of income from Dana staying home, the cost of travel to and from CHOP, co-pays, medications, etc., Lily’s family will have a tough financial road ahead. The Farley Open family has been so generous with their support in past years, and we ask you to once again show love, prayers, and financial support to a wonderful family who is currently experiencing some struggles. 100% of every dollar we raise will go directly to Lily’s family to help them through a very tough time.

Off 7 blue they have finally buckled and a path behind the green will lead to a permanent bridge. I played with a couple of members there today and they said it should be completed by end of August. We may be one of the first outings to get to use it. Other pics from Shawnee below. Great day.
