Benefit Set For Mike Vrana
The friends of Mike Vrana, who was diagnosed with cancer on September 1, are planning a
benefit to help defray costs associated with current and future medical expenses. Mike, owner
of Granger Pit Stop, had surgery on September 16 and has a very rare cancer called
Nueroendocine Carcinoma of the Right Parotid Gland. He is only the fifth person in
the United States to be diagnosed with this type since 1972. There is no protocol on treatment.
Mike is being treated with intensive radiation chemotherapy. Granger Recreation Center
will be the location for the Mike Vrana Benefit Dinner, Dance and Auction on Saturday,
February 11. A barbecue pork dinner with all the trimmings will be served from 4 PM to 6 PM. Dinner
tickets are $10 for dine in or take out. Only a limited number of tickets will be sold at the
door. Advance tickets can be purchased at Granger Pit Stop, Granger Red & White, First State
Bank and Granger National Bank. A silent auction will begin at 4 PM with a live auction
at 6 PM. CR 354 is reuniting for one night only to provide music for the dance, which begins
at 8:30 PM. Tickets to the dance are $15 per person with children ten & under free. Donations to
the Mike Vrana Benefit can be made at Granger National Bank or by mailing a check to P.O. Box 301,
Granger, Texas 76530, made out to Mike Vrana Beneft.
