The Final Kraus Down: Fundraiser for Kraus Family at GMU Hockey Game

Come out and support the Kraus family at the George Mason University Hockey Team vs. Alumni Game on Saturday, March 15 at 3:15 p.m. at the Prince William Ice Center in Dale City. 

In November, 2013, Ashburn resident Cheryl Kraus suddenly passed away.  She was a devoted mother to eight children and a beloved member of the community.  Her husband also died three years ago.

Since then, the community has rallied to support the family and this is another great event put together by their friends and neighbors.
