A Child's Wish is Granted by Pearl River Resort and Larry the Cable Guy
PRESS RELEASEMay 26, 2011
Pearl River Resort, a development of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, along with actor and comedian Larry the Cable Guy helped "git-r-done" and grant a big wish for a local boy suffering with a life-threatening condition.
Before his live performance at The Arena at Golden Moon on May 14, Larry the Cable Guy, best known as one of the three performers of the successful Blue Collar Comedy Tour series, took the time to meet and entertain 10 year old cancer patient Brian of Philadelphia, MS.
"Larry delighted Brian," said DJ Lindfors, Entertainment Director for Pearl River Resort. "He understands how much the gift of his time and just helping a kid laugh and have a good time can inspire them. When we asked Larry's team about the opportunity, they said it would be an honor to lend a hand."
A member of the boy's family contacted Pearl River Resort officials to ask if they could arrange for him to attend the live comedy show and meet Larry the Cable Guy. Brian is fighting cancer but his family says he is a huge comedy fan and loves to dress-up like his comedy idol, Larry the Cable Guy. Brian has been diagnosed with lymphoma – a cancer that affects the lymphatic cells of the immune system. According to reports from his family members, however, Brian is doing much better after the celebrity visit.
"Pearl River Resort is proud to have been part of such a noble effort in making the young boy's wish come true," said Susan O'Connell, Executive Vice President and COO for Pearl River Resort. "We are thankful that Larry was willing to give his time to help grant the wish of a child who is facing such a major medical battle."
