In Memory of James E. Kleinrichert Jr.

James and Mary Ann Kleinrichert created the James Jr. Fund, in memory of their beloved son who passed away in 1982 of Leukemia. The Kleinricherts are the owners of the Ark Restaurant in Davie, Florida. They use the popular restaurant as a tool to raise funds. More than 300 plaques, designed and donated by Paula Anderson, who owns Designed Advertising in Davie, decorate the walls of the restaurant. Each represents a donation of $100 to the cause. Thanks to the Kleinricherts and their efforts to help children they have raised over 5 million dollars. Many of the fundraising events include Golf Tournaments, Bob Amchir's Toys in the Sun Run, and a Black Tie Gala each year.
