Support for Ken Steiner

As many of you may or may not know, our friend and colleague Ken Steiner has recently been hospitalized and is facing major surgery and mounting medical expenses.   Always ready to lend a hand, he has given many hours of his time volunteering for Little Brothers, cooking wonderful meals for the senior citizens in this area. He has graced our music circles with his voice and harmonica and shared good times and hard times with his Copper Country friends and “family”.  

In Ken’s own words (as of 09/05/'16) he’ll tell you what has happened:

“Okay...FB friends...and FB sorta friends...Here is my health update..y'all know I spent the last few days in Marquette General..extensive testing has revealed a damaged aortic valve...so in mid-Oct (exact date not set yet) I will have open -heart surgery in MQT to replace the valve...after consulting with the cardiac team..so I need 6 weeks to get my ducks in a row..after surgery I'll need about 2 months of healing and re-hab..this will require help from those who are willing and able to help..I'll be unable to work or play the blues..the process will be arduous, but I have confidence that I can 'get by with a little help from my friends!' I've been overwhelmed by the outpouring of concern and encouragement from all of you...I look forward to many more years of good health, cooking for my friends, singing, and playing the blues for you all...I love you all”

Here’s a chance for all of us to give back to Ken, even if you can’t afford to give please share this cause on your social media accounts.  Thank you so much for whatever you can do.  Ken will appreciate it.
