Why Ronald McDonald House Charities?
While living in NY with his wife Elaine, step-son Jake and two daughters, Shelby and Randi an event took place that changed Tommy and his familys life forever. On July 27th, 1998, just two weeks shy of her birthday, a large tumor was found at the stem of his youngest daughter Randis brain. In spite of having quite possibly the best care in the world, the cancer won its six month war against Randi just two days before Valentines Day. She was two-years-old. Although Randi spent many of her remaining days in a hospital room, the family was able to spend many nights together at the local NYC Ronald McDonald House. Tommy and Elaine were able to piece together as normal a life as possible with the entire family as they spend many a weeks away from home. Ronald McDonald House not only provided the basic needs of shelter, but more importantly supplied an environment, a home away from home, where familys like the Neesons could be together during those difficult times.
