The Road to Recovery
How You Can Help
After two months in the hospital and rehabilitation, the ongoing costs of Dave Miller’s medical bills continue to rise.
Brie Fleming has lived next door to the Millers for the last nine years and is organizing a fundraiser 5 to 9 p.m. on
Oct. 28 at Newlin Hall, 2818 Green Valley Road in New Albany.
“The friendship that we have – you can’t pick your family, but you can pick your friends. They’re the friends I’d pick
as family,” Fleming says.
The event will host a silent auction. Amongst the items offered will be a one-hour flight lesson or sightseeing flight,
a replica of the New Albany Bulldogs basketball court and a signed 2017-2018 team basketball, and a round of golf
donated by Valley View Golf Course.
There will be hourly 50/50 pots and live music donated by a local deejay.
Bearno’s Pizza has donated pasta for 100 people, Tumbleweed has donated queso and chips, and Texas Roadhouse
will provide salad and rolls. There is a $5 cover charge for the event.
