Pretty in Pink – A FUNdraiser for Autumn Larkin

Posted on Oct 6, 2010 in Families In Need, Past Events

One hundred percent of the proceeds go to Autumn. Autumn Larkin is an incredible woman who usually cares for others.

Hero’s Welcome The ambulance doors opened and hundreds of friends, family members and supporters cheered to welcome Chris Doyle back into the community. The welcome seemed a bit overwhelming for the shy 22 year-old Port St. Lucie resident who lost his lower left leg when the ambulance in which the EMT was riding was hit by an SUV a few weeks ago. After greeting a few friends and answering a few questions for television reporters, Doyle had one simple request – a slice of pizza. After learning about the events that led to such a change in the young IRSC grad’s situation, Scott Van Duzer of the Van Duzer Foundation quickly organized a benefit to help assist Doyle and his family with the additional expenses and financial burden.
