Thank you to Simon Coles for posting Frank Williams' letter. I forwarded it to my parents, who then gave me permission to post the following message to this list. Two years ago my parents donated over $100,000 to the APDA with specific directions that the money was to go for Parkinson's research at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Angeles and the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix. So far neither institution has seen one penny of that money. My parents' initial efforts to find out what happened to the money have been rebuffed. We would like to contact Frank Williams, who had already departed from the APDA when the donation was made, in the hopes that he can give us some leads as to where the money went. If anyone on this list knows how we can contact Williams or has any information that might help us find the money and get it into research as intended, please e-mail me privately at [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] Thank you.
