Speaking on behalf of the couple, Sharon said that they were overwhelmed by the open hearted response. “In particular, we are greatly indebted to ‘Sporting Hope’ from Nelson Bay, Blue Water Stainless from Salamander Bay and the Tilligerry RSL and Golf club for staging the event,”she said. “The individual sponsors ‘bought’ a hole for $400 each and used them to promote their businesses,” she added. “Mike Rabbitt from NBN did a great job as MC on the day and the entry fees, raffles and competitions all helped as well,” she said. It’s still a long way to go for Kerry on his journey back to driving a car as he explains, “ I must qualify for my licence with the ‘hands only’ controls and pass a driving test at an accredited driving school before I can once again get back on the road and be independent,” he said. “At this stage, it’s one day at a time – but I’m getting there!”
