Mr. Gatti's Pizza franchise owner Bill Boone has battled and beaten prostate cancer, skin cancer and leukemia. He now wants to help kids do the same.
Mr. Gatti’s Pizza franchise owner Bill Boone has helped raise almost a million dollars forIn 1975, Bill Boone was a lawyer for Mr. Gatti’s Pizza, writing the original franchise agreement and eventually becoming a full-time franchisee himself."When you somebody says you have cancer, that’s a pretty scary word," Boone said.
He had prostate cancer surgery and received a clean bill of health, but then he was diagnosed with chronic leukemia and different skin cancers. During the celebration of the new aerial ladder for Jarrell Fire Rescue, one firefighter who is battling cancer attended with his family. "I’m very fortunate that I’ve gone to good doctors through the years and most everything I’ve had has been caught in the early stages, and that’s really the key to successful survival," Boone said."I thought pizza and kids, that’s perfect, right," Boone said. "So if you come in, we’ll say if you’ll give me $2 to benefit kids with cancer, I’ll give you a $2 coupon for your next visit.
"We take a mobile Mr. Gatti’s Pizza wagon down there and set it all up and cook Mr. Gatti’s pizza for all the kids at camp," Boone said. "They seem to enjoy that.""These kids are having a tough enough time without the cancer, so you throw the cancer on top of that, and it’s really rewarding to try to do what you can to help them," Boone said.that I have read and agree
