Note from FedEx:
Industry colleagues,
Peter was a Broker for FedEx, and worked in our Melbourne office for a number of years. Unfortunately Peter (40 Years Old) died after a fight with an aggressive cancer, leaving behind two young children, and his wife Melissa. We are now having an event for Peter and his family on February 8th in Melbourne.
Peter is well known in the Victorian brokerage and freight community, and I'm sure they would like to also support the cause.
All profits from the evening will be given to Peter's children by way of a trust fund that FedEx have setup.
Again, I would be appreciate if you could pass onto your immediate workgroups and industry colleagues and have them also invite friends and family as this is open to all, not just FedEx employees.
Any inquiries regarding the night, please contact Amanda Heatley directly
(03-9931-6210) or myself (02-9565-0820) If however, anybody would like to make a donation please contact Amanda Heatley for details.
We appreciate your support for such a worthy cause.
Best Regards,
Rob Battistel
