"We wanted to give back to our own community."
Meet Brenda and Ted Kingsley of Carson, who for the last couple of years have hosted a local Euchre tournament and fundraising event with 100 percent of the proceeds going to the University of Michigan Health-Carson Cancer Center. The inspiration behind this act of good will is Brenda's late mother, Vergeline, an avid Euchre player, who died of cancer in 2020.
UM Health-Sparrow would like to thank the Kingsleys and their generous team for showing so much love and compassion to our patients and team members.
