 On May 19th 2007, while searching for missing US soldiers, Pfc. Matthew A. Bean was shot in the back of the head by a sniper. Several days later, while at Bethesda Naval Hospital, the doctor in charge, who happened to be a 22-year veteran, stated that she had never seen such a devastating brain injury and could not understand how Matthew was still alive. Yet even Matthew could not overcome this injury and died May 31st 2007. After his death, Matthew continued helping others. Several lives were saved because, before his death Matthew chose to be a donor. Dana Bean (Matthew’s father) created the Pfc. Matthew A. Bean scholarship in honor of Matthew. This scholarship goes to a senior at Silver Lake High school where Matthew graduated. Last year (2007) there was a softball tournament to help raise funds for the scholarship. The 12-team tournament was so successful, that this year it will be a 16-team tournament. Now, the Pfc. Matthew A. Bean scholarship is proud to announce the first annual Pfc. Matthew A. Bean Memorial Golf Tournament. This tournament will be held, Saturday, August 9 at the New England Country Club in Bellingham, MA. (www.newenglandcountryclub.com). Join us for a fun day on the links to help raise valuable funds for the Pfc. Matthew A. Bean Scholarship. The day will consist of a light deli lunch buffet, dinner buffet, an 18 hole scramble on the beautiful Hale Irwin created course, as well as prizes. Entry fee is $175 ... |
