Each year, the family donates a prize for the raffle in memory of their husband and father, Lawson “Bob” McCabe, who died in 1998.
As recipients of care from Hospice of Scotland County, the McCabes make this generous donation to allow other families to receive the gift of hospice care in the future.
On Monday, tournament steering committee members Dixie Cox and Linda Henderson and Hospice intern Audrey Bolte, a St. Andrews student, joined Gertrude McCabe and Theresa McCabe Alexander to unveil this year’s raffle prize, a 1-carat total weight, 3-stone diamond white gold pendant.
The Diamond in the Rough raffle is held in conjunction with the 24th annual Richard L. Byrne Memorial Golf Tournament, scheduled for April 13-14 at Scotch Meadows Country Club. The raffle drawing will be held April 14, and the winner does not have to be present to win.
“We are grateful to Bob’s Jewel Shop and the McCabe family for their remarkable support,” said Jane Murray, Executive Director of Hospice of Scotland County. “The Diamond in the Rough raffle has become one of the highlights of the golf tournament, thanks to their unwavering commitment and generosity.”
Raffle tickets are $10 and are available at the Hospice office. Tickets may also be purchased at Eaton Corporation, Scotch Meadows Country Club, Classic Styles, Hair Graphics, and Hairitage Styling Salon. Tickets are also available at the following locations in downtown Laurinburg: Bob’s Jewel Shop, The Daily Grind, The Gill House, Harley’s Tuxedo & Gifts, Art by Design and ShirtTales.
