Six years ago, I shaved to raise money to fight childhood cancer and with the help of family and friends, and friends of friends, we raised over $14,000 in 2016.  This time, cancer has personally struck me (I'm OK, they were able to surgically remove it), but more importantly, cancer has struck my three-year-old nephew, Ari.  I'm confident that Ari is going to be fine, but he's starting to lose his hair from the chemotheraphy, and I think he should have some company, so I'm shaving my head, beard and mustache in solidarity with Ari, and hopefully to raise money for childhood cancer research.  So many people helped six years ago, and I'm hoping that you'll all step up again to fight childhood cancer.  As an added bonus, you get to see me bald, and surely that's worth a laugh???  

Additionally, my brother Ron Ostomel, Ari's Grandpa O, has now decided to join me, and he will be shaving his head too.  We'll be the "bald brothers", so you'll have double the opportunity to laugh at our "after the shave" photos.  

So please donate now, and please put the arm on 5 or 10 of your friends.  Ask them to donate now too.  The more the merrier and the quicker we'll reach the goal.  March 19 will be here quickly, so please make your donation now, and THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING ME, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THANK YOU FOR FIGHTING CHILDHOOD CANCER. Be well, jeff
