ADVISORY, Dec. 22, 2006 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) --
WHAT: 8-year-old Henry Guevara lived a challenging life. Though his
battle with leukemia weakened him, it was a fall at a shopping
center on Dec. 19 that ultimately took his young life. Now
his grieving family, who have no resources to give him a
proper burial, are left to pick up the pieces. Thanks to one
local funeral home operator, the family will be able to bury
young Henry at no cost and receive some much-needed holiday
cheer. Ken McKenzie, whose best-selling Men of Mortuaries
calendar raises funds for families facing life-threatening
cancer, will underwrite the funeral and bring toys, a holiday
feast and other festivities for the Guevara family including
the four remaining children.
