The second annual Mike Heath Memorial Foundation Golf Tournament has hit all the right shots once again.
The event – in honour of Richmond man Mike Heath, who passed away three years ago, age just 36, from a rare heart condition known as inherited long QT syndrome – was held last Friday at Mylora Golf Course on Sidaway Road.
One hundred golfers teed off at the course before being joined by 45 more friends and family of Heath for the ensuing banquet.
A raffle and a silent auction, that featured over 90 items, were great attractions and, together with the putting contest, more than $20,000 was raised for the foundation which supports St. Paul’s Hospital Inherited Arrythmia Program, BC Children’s Hospital Heart Center, and Canucks for Kids.
The Heath family told the Richmond News it would like to thank all of the participants, sponsors, volunteers and the many prize donors that made it all happen.
