Damian Izsa's Tricky Tray Scholarship Dinner in Northern New Jersey

Hello family, friends and fans. We'd like to take this opportunity to talk to you about a Tricky Tray dinner that will be held in honor of a dear family friend, Damian Izsa. He was taken away from us too soon and is missed every day. Damian had worked as a nurse at Valley Hospital in Ridgewood, NJ and the scholarship that is in honor of him will now help students pursing a nursing career.

The dinner will be held on October 19th at 6:30pm at the Excelsior in Saddle Brook, NJ. Tickets are now on sale for $50 each and you can contact Mary Tarabocchia at Luckow at 201-634-5329 to purchase them. Checks will be accepted. You can make them out to The Valley Hospital Foundation with Damian Izsa Scholarship Fund written in the memo section.

Donations for prizes for the tricky tray are being accepted now. Any size, any item, even an empty basket to put items in, would be greatly appreciated. Your items can be picked up or you can directly drop them off at the hospital.

With a buffet dinner, live music, dancing and amazing prizes, this dinner will sure be to an amazing night! Please come out and/or donate some items to support the family and friends of Damian.

We'd like to thank you all in advance for your support. Please help us spread the word. If you are interested in purchasing a ticket or donating an item, do not hesitate to contact us.

XOXO,
Aelicia & Rachael

Damian Izsa Scholarship

Last Friday, May 6th, was an important night to us, family and friends. It was the night we honored our dear friend Damian Izsa, who left us too early. He was a remarkable man that could always make you laugh and his laugh will now always echo in our minds.

Damian was an RN at Valley Hospital. He made lasting impressions on everyone he met and his colleagues were no exception. They have set up a scholarship fund in his name so that a former colleague or perhaps a future employee can further their education. A dinner was given and a Tricky Tray was set on place (something that I'm sure Damian would have cringed at lol). Many amazing items were donated by a lot of wonderful friends and family....and even Rachael and I were lucky winners of several items! As of Friday, they had raised over $20,000 and we hope to continue to raise more! Damian, we hope you are smiling down and saw how you are truly loved and missed.

Below are a few pictures from that night. If you would like to make a donation please email us at info@aarteventplanning.com for further information.

XOXO,

Aelicia & Rachael
