Annual Sweethearts for SickKids raising funds for Luke's Legacy S k y w a y Jew ellers by M arta Marychuk Oakville Beaver Staff 5 |Thursday, February 9, 2017 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com afentine 6 /<· vememSev! / An Oakville family remembers what would have been their son's 11th birthday by raising money for other broken hearts. On Sunday Feb. 12, Carolyn and Troy Holmes, along with their children Zak, Max and Jackson, invite everyone to decorate a nut-free cookie at Longo's Market, 469 Cornwall Rd., Oakville, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Luke lost his batde with a congenital heart defect nine years ago, at the age of two. His parents, Carolyn and Troy, started Luke's Legacy, a charity to raise money for the Cardiac Critical Care Unit (CCU) at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) where Luke spent so much of his short life after having two heart surgeries. "This is our way of remembering Luke for the strong, courageous little fighter that he was," said Carolyn. "Despite being jabbed with needles, suffering with acid reflux, and in the end, enduring the pain of his organs failing, he still always had a smile and a hug to give." Since the fundraiser began in 2009, it has raised $150,000 for SickKids Foundation. This year, Carolyn is focusing on raising money for a Vein Visualization Device for the CCU that helps nurses find small veins in little UNO Luke Holmes babies when inserting an intravenous (IV) injection. see Luke on p.9 2501 Third Line, Oakville (Third Line and Dundas) 905-827-0700 w w w .skyw ayjew elle rs.co m C ar an d Truck R en tals 1510 Speers Rd.
