Sign a Card for the Kellers

You can share condolences with the family and make a donation to the Derrick Keller Fund.

When news broke two weeks ago that Derrick Keller—an 18-year-old former St. Louis Park baseball star—, it seemed only fitting to do something for the family.

So, starting today, I'll have a giant card at the that all in the community can sign. The card (you can see a photo of it to the right) will eventually be given to the Keller family.

I'll be at the Rec today from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m., so feel free to swing by, say hi, and sign the card. I'll also be collecting donations for the Derrick Keller Fund—cash and checks will both be accepted.

Donations can't be collected while I'm not at the Rec, but I will leave the card at the front desk so folks can sign it after 2:30 (I will try to swing by a few more times in the next few weeks to collect donations). You can also send donations at any time to: Derrick Keller Fund, , 5000 West 36th St., St. Louis Park, MN, 55416.

I want to see as many signatures as possible on this card—let's show the Keller family how much this community loves DK!
