      Golden Heart Luncheon Inspires Guests To Open Their Hearts



        Keep your heart open and look for ways to
      help others. That was the key message at the
      Golden Heart Luncheon on Thursday, Jan. 16 at
      The Country Club at Mirasol. Emmy and Golden
      Globe winner Jane Seymour was the featured
      speaker at the annual event that benefits the
      Nicklaus Children’s Health Care Foundation.
        The afternoon was filled with stories of
      hope and healing from former patients like
      Lucky who has undergone four surgeries to
      overcome a severe deformity in his spine. The
      bubbly teenager inspired laughter and tears as
      he encouraged attendees to purchase keepsake
      bears for themselves and young patients. The
      event set a fundraising record for the foundation,
      raising $550,000.
