Great support from the community

To the Editor:

We feel so blessed to be part of such an amazing community. Hundreds of family, friends and well-wishers gathered at D’Orio’s Circle Café in Somers Point on Feb. 29 to support Mike Shimp.

Everyone’s generosity helped us exceed expectations for the event. We know the organizers are forever grateful and Mike and his family could not be more appreciative.

Thank you to all.
