On Sunday, November 2nd, the McAdams family had the privilege of meeting Nora Rozgony and the Rozgony family at the Team Nora Family Walk.

In May, 8 year old Nora went to the hospital feeling very sick. After antibiotics had no effect on the illness she returned to her doctor where they discovered an aggressive tumor in her chest.

After two rounds of chemotherapy and surgery to remove the mass, another tumor was found in her abdomen which led to emergency surgery.

Since then Nora and her family have been traveling to Boston for specialized care and treatment in an experimental drug trial at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.

The Team Nora Family Walk was organized by friends of the family and the community of Red Leaf here in Broomfield. It was an amazing show of support with hundreds of residents walking, filling out get well cards, and creating chalk murals in support of Nora.

The family is continuing to accept donations to help offset the costs of treatments, travel and overnight stay fees, and loss of work due to the aggressive changes in the schedules of Nora’s parents. You can send your donations to the Cross of Christ Church located at 12099 Lowell Blvd, Broomfield, CO 80020. 

You can also learn more about Nora and her family and donate via the CaringBridge website by following this link, or follow her story on her community Facebook page found here.

On behalf of the McAdams family, I wish Nora a speedy recovery and want the Rozgony family to know they are in our thoughts and prayers constantly. If there’s anything we can do to help, we’d love to.

-Chris

5th Annual Bowl for A Precious Child Tournament

Hopefully March has been a great month for all of our friends and their families, it certainly has been good for McAdams Plumbing and A Precious Child. MP was so excited to have the opportunity to be the presenting sponsor for the 5th Annual Bowl for A Precious Child Fire vs Police Tournament. It was a great time with great people. While the Broomfield Police Department just edged out North Metro Fire for the win, the true winner was A Precious Child. They were able to raise over $9,500.00 to benefit their mission. Keep up the good work APC, can’t wait for next year!

Mary McGrath

McAdams Plumbing was deeply saddened to learn that on Friday, October 12th, at about 2:30pm, Mary McGrath was shot to death at her place of business in Broomfield. Not only was Mary a resident of our city, she was a customer of ours and an absolutely wonderful woman. Nothing we can say could begin to mend the hearts of those deeply affected by this loss. We would like to express our deep sadness and hope that justice will be found and peace can come to those who were close to Mary.

Information on the story as it develops can be found here and here. At this point a suspect is in custody on charges of first degree murder.

We hope that this will be the last post we will have to make about the loss of life for a while. With the recent events of Jessica Ridgeway and now the loss of Mary McGrath we are reminded of how precious and important life really is. We ask everyone to take the time to remember what is important in life; family, friends, and helping others.

Thanks for reading along.
