Tom Grant Goes to the Dogs

Blade is a 5-year-old service dog who has helped his owner, Stacy, do lots of things every day. Stacy is in a wheelchair, and when Blade was diagnosed with osteosarcoma and had to have a rear leg amputated, he needed her help to pay for his cancer treatments.

Local jazzman and dog-lover Tom Grant (right) has stepped in and is doing a benefit concert for Blade at Augustana Lutheran Church on the afternoon of May 6, and Stacy and Blade would be very glad to see some of you there. So go and get a wag of the tail from Blade!

Details: Tom Grant Benefit Concert for Blade. May 6, 3:30 pm. Augustana Lutheran Church, 2710 NE 14th. Phone 503-288-6174.
