On January 5 of this year Jack White, an Oakland Park resident lovingly known as Saint Jack, and his wife Melissa were out riding their motorcycle. At some point during the ride Jack told Melissa to hang on just before they crashed. Neither rider was wearing a helmet so the details of what caused them to crash are unclear. They were both severely injured and the accident changed their lives forever.
More and More Medical Bills
Melissa’s income helps cover some bills but it is not enough to cover their living expensive and medical bills. Jack still needs constant medical attention and rehabilitation. The bills are piling up quicker than the Whites can pay them. Friends and family have helped out but more help is needed in order to help the Whites through this difficult time.
Come Putt, Have Fun and Help the Whites
Debbie Blakely, owner of Oakland Park’s Big Dog Station and long-time friend of the Whites, has supported them throughout their struggle. This weekend Debbie is hosting the Putt Fore Jack White Benefit at Big Dog Station in downtown Oakland Park from 12-9PM.
Big Dog Station will set up its epic pop-up mini-golf course. Participants will be putting fore with all proceeds benefitting our beloved Melissa and Jack White.
