2nd Annual Rylee Morrison Golf Classic - September 12th, 2010

Promotional Video of the 2nd Annual Ryllee Morrison Golf Tournament

In honour of Rylee Morrison, age 2, lost in October 2007, Epilepsy Niagara held the 1st Annual Rylee Morrison Golf Tournament on May 9th, 2009.

Held at the Niagara Falls Golf Course, the tournament was a great success, raising over $4,000 in proceeds to benefit child/parent support programs and children's summer camp sponsorship.

The day included 18 holes, a delicious homemade pasta lunch, desserts and a silent auction.

Rylee's mother, Alaine Morrison, delivered a very emotional and heartfelt speech describing Rylee as a young child diagnosed and living with paediatric epilepsy. Her words brought forth a vision of a happy and inquisitive boy whose life was sadly and suddenly taken; and of a family heartbroken with the loss of him. A video montage beautifully displayed Rylee's sweet smile, his love for his family and his innocent and charming personality - accompanied by Sarah Maclachlan's song, "Angel".

As a continuance in honouring Rylee, Epilepsy Niagara is pleased to announce the details regarding the 2nd Annual Rylee Morrison Golf Classic!!
