MaryBeth was recently diagnosed with stage 3 metastatic pancreatic cancer. On February 8th, she underwent surgery to remove a portion of her pancreas, her spleen, and several lymph nodes. Following her surgery, she received devastating news that the cancer has begun to spread.
MaryBeth is a police officer for three local townships: Kline Township, Rush Township, and Ryan Township where she is a corporal. She earned her double masters and is also a Mental Health Professional. She is now out of work as her treatments begin.
Please come and support our beloved family member Mary Beth Fatula Elias in her fight against pancreatic cancer on Saturday, March 25th, 2023 at the Tap at Humboldt Beer Depot from 2:00-7:00 P.M. The Tap’s address is 563 Cando Expressway Hazleton, Pennsylvania. We’d like to send a tremendous ‘thank you’ to Ken and Barb Gottstein, their family, and tremendous staff for helping us schedule this event. Food and drink specials will be available with a percentage of all sales going back to MaryBeth. The menu will be announced as the event approaches. There will also be Tricky-Trays and a 50/50 raffle. In addition, Tom Molinaro and MaryBeth’s cousin from Canada Rob Bollman known as The Lone Wolf Project musical guests are scheduled to perform.
We’d like to thank Katelynn and Justin Farley for their help with her T-Shirt fundraiser. We have included the link to the website to order shirts and hoodies will be available for purchase until Sunday, March 5th, at 11:59 P.M.
