Earl Root Tribute

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

..The Earl Root Fund's mission is to provide financial stability to Earl Root, which will alleviate additional burdens while facing his battle with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma Regenerative.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Earl Root - Longtime local Metal supporter, guitarist for the bands Aesma Daeva and On The Rocks. Owner of Root Cellar Records Host or the eighteen year running KFAI Radio Show "The Root of All EVIL"
+LYMPHOMATHON - METAL FOR A CURE!+

Help Earl in his fight against cancer. The organizers of the benefit, together with the Lymphoma Research Foundation (LRF) will be pulling a team together of volunteers to participate in the LRF Lymphomathon on Saturday, June 9th. This is a 5K non-competitive walk around Lake Nokomis. All proceeds will go to funding research for a cure for Lymphoma.
GET TO THE ROOT OF THE CAUSE!
