2:51
Speaker 5: the Osage Casino. The o Sage Casino is hosting a
2:55
Speaker 5: huge silent live auction music event on Friday the twenty fourth.
3:03
Speaker 5: I can tell you some of those auction items are amazing. Wow,
3:09
Speaker 5: definitely one of a kind, definitely.
3:16
Speaker 3: Big money makers.
3:18
Speaker 2: You you know, we can talk about all the events,
3:21
Speaker 2: but what I'm hearing is all of this just keeps growing.
3:24
Speaker 4: Homestone itself keeps growing, yes.
3:27
Speaker 2: Because you know, unfortunately cancer touches pretty much everybody, every family,
3:33
Speaker 2: every business in our community. And you know, Mark said
3:37
Speaker 2: to say hello as I was leaving the dealership, Mark Servingy,
3:40
Speaker 2: one of our sales people is you know, loves Hopstone
3:44
Speaker 2: and you know because it's touched his family and how
3:47
Speaker 2: you guys have helped them through a time where they
3:50
Speaker 2: really needed your help. And and let's go back to
3:55
Speaker 2: the beginning and talk about what does Hopestone do and
3:58
Speaker 2: how do you impact people in that time a great need.
4:03
Speaker 5: So, yes, Hopestone we were founded way back in twenty
4:10
Speaker 5: thirteen by doctor Jennifer mckiss, like with breast cancer, and
4:14
Speaker 5: so she just had this vision of having all the
4:18
Speaker 5: services that a cancer patient would need to make life
4:21
Speaker 5: a little bit easier in one location. So her vision
4:26
Speaker 5: was to have a meeting place where cancer patients could
4:29
Speaker 5: get together, a place where they could go and exercise,
4:33
Speaker 5: a place where they could get assistance with services and
4:39
Speaker 5: things like that that they needed, wigs, hat, scarves, all
4:43
Speaker 5: of that kind of stuff, and she wanted all that
4:48
Speaker 5: in one place, and so when she came back to
4:51
Speaker 5: Bartlesville from Houston, that's exactly what she started to do.
4:55
Speaker 5: And so our programs have just grown. We now have
5:01
Speaker 5: a partnership with Ascension Jane Phillips Pharmacy, and that allows
5:07
Speaker 5: cancer patients to how their oncologists can send the prescription there,
5:13
Speaker 5: they go and pick it up and then that pharmacy
5:16
Speaker 5: will bill us directly for that, so they don't have
5:20
Speaker 5: to worry about that. We have gas cards, we have
5:23
Speaker 5: airline vouchers. We have the meal program, which is huge,
5:29
Speaker 5: you know, where we make four fresh meals every week,
5:32
Speaker 5: package deliver or they can pick them up. And then
5:36
Speaker 5: there's also a freezer full of things they can come
5:38
Speaker 5: and help themselves. To worry about is food, Yeah, all
5:43
Speaker 5: kinds of nutritional things, so Premiere protein, pediolite, feeding tube stuff,
5:50
Speaker 5: all kinds of you know, wound care stuff, tons and
5:55
Speaker 5: tons of different things. And it's kind of interesting because
5:59
Speaker 5: the community has become so involved in Hopestone.
6:03
Speaker 3: Like you said, no one has not been touched. And
6:07
Speaker 3: that's one of.
6:07
Speaker 5: The things I love this year about our Dad's Walk.
6:11
Speaker 5: I'm kind of going back to that is this year
6:14
Speaker 5: we really focused on Bartlesville and Dewey and our community
6:20
Speaker 5: here and so we reached out to local businesses. We're
6:24
Speaker 5: still reaching out to local businesses. The goal is to
6:27
Speaker 5: get all of our local businesses to give us something
6:30
Speaker 5: for the Silent Auction so that the people coming into
6:34
Speaker 5: town can really see how Bartlesville is so special. And
6:38
Speaker 5: then for our huge barbecue which is on Saturday up
6:42
Speaker 5: in Copane, Whial Mart gave us some meat and then
6:46
Speaker 5: we had painted Whorse Crossing, Second Chick fil A, Prices
6:52
Speaker 5: Meat Market, hto Cranky Playing Copine truck stop, UH Burns contractors,
7:02
Speaker 5: all of these local companies helping us out with food
7:08
Speaker 5: for the event. So it's just it's really cool that
7:13
Speaker 5: we can see that. You know, we haven't we have
7:15
Speaker 5: a couple more. We got to hit up Bambinos and
7:17
Speaker 5: Dinks and you know, all that kind of stuff, and
7:19
Speaker 5: don't worry, we'll get you.
7:20
Speaker 6: We will get you for something.
7:23
Speaker 3: But it's just really great.
7:25
Speaker 5: So all these people coming into town and they see,
7:28
Speaker 5: you know, what a wonderful community.
7:31
Speaker 3: We're all invested.
7:32
Speaker 2: It helps show the impact of what you guys are doing.
7:36
Speaker 2: And also you know, keeps keeps the top of mind
7:39
Speaker 2: with people too, because I think the often that connectedness
7:42
Speaker 2: in our community and helping that understand that we're all
7:45
Speaker 2: in this together.
7:46
Speaker 3: Yes, right, and yes we are all the garbage. Put
7:49
Speaker 3: all that garbage aside.
7:50
Speaker 5: Let's take care of the people that take care of us,
7:53
Speaker 5: you know, And that's so important. And you know why,
7:57
Speaker 5: I'm just gonna say this, Why go to Tulsen buy car?
8:01
Speaker 3: That's why do we go to Tulsa to buy car? No,
8:04
Speaker 3: that's stupidity.
8:06
Speaker 2: You know, there are there are some things. We don't
8:10
Speaker 2: have the largest selection all that. But yes, no, we're
8:13
Speaker 2: being a small true of course we will and you know,
8:17
Speaker 2: but being a small Oklahoma family owned car dealership, you know,
8:21
Speaker 2: community base, we don't we don't sell cars. This is
8:24
Speaker 2: the only dealership we have. We don't really want to
8:26
Speaker 2: expand that's not our vision. It's to serve the community,
8:29
Speaker 2: to lift people up, you know, to really you know,
8:33
Speaker 2: to you know, in in this world we're in where
8:36
Speaker 2: you know, consolidation in our industry and in so many industries,
8:41
Speaker 2: the big box world that we live in, the mega companies,
8:46
Speaker 2: and and you know it's just not personal. And we
8:50
Speaker 2: want to live in a in that personal touch thing
8:54
Speaker 2: take care of our customers.
8:57
Speaker 4: And that's that's our passion.
8:58
Speaker 2: We we definitely you know, we want to transform the
9:02
Speaker 2: perception of buying a car the way that it's purchased.
9:05
Speaker 2: And you know that we do that through our pay
9:09
Speaker 2: plans with our people and and just talking about values
9:13
Speaker 2: really and and and what is the right thing to do.
9:16
Speaker 2: And you've seen our sparks thing at the leadership before
9:20
Speaker 2: and I have, and it's uh, you know that that
9:23
Speaker 2: just continues to kind of grow like Hopestone has in
9:27
Speaker 2: our company and how people uh you know, at how
9:31
Speaker 2: it works to help us keep us grounded and with
9:33
Speaker 2: every decision we make, and and and it is it
9:36
Speaker 2: is a parallel to to that back to what doctor
9:41
Speaker 2: McKissick was doing when she when she came back from
9:44
Speaker 2: her struggles and.
9:46
Speaker 4: And decided to invest in the community. Yeah.
9:49
Speaker 2: No, that's ah, that is because it as odd as
9:53
Speaker 2: it sounds, you know that I'm in the car business to.
9:56
Speaker 5: Help people right well, you know, they have to get
10:00
Speaker 5: from one place to another. And how nice is it
10:02
Speaker 5: that you can just pick up the phone if there's
10:04
Speaker 5: a problem and say, hey Brad, I need help with this,
10:08
Speaker 5: or hey Mark, this is going on.
10:10
Speaker 3: Can you help me out?
10:11
Speaker 5: Or I have a I have to take a long
10:14

10:18
Speaker 3: and it's taken care of.
10:21
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, you don't have to worry about it.
10:22
Speaker 3: It's very personal service. I love that about you guys.
10:26
Speaker 4: Thank you.
10:26
Speaker 5: You know, when we're looking for a car and you.
10:29
Speaker 3: Know how my husband is he delves bar wide.
10:36
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he's gonna you know, he's gonna make a
10:38
Speaker 5: phone call and he said that, you know, we've been
10:40
Speaker 5: here for twenty two years and he will not buy
10:45
Speaker 5: a car anywhere else but Bartleswell, that's awesome. You know,
10:51
Speaker 5: we need to take care of our remunion.
10:53
Speaker 4: There is a choice.
10:54
Speaker 2: I made a a my elevator speech at the Rotary
10:58
Speaker 2: Club on Monday Club and it was was It was
11:03
Speaker 2: great because I was talking to a lot of friends
11:06
Speaker 2: and people I know well, but they didn't know the
11:09
Speaker 2: whole story. And you know, for ninety five years in
11:12
Speaker 2: our family, we've been doing this and it started with
11:16
Speaker 2: my grandfather and his mother. His father had passed away,
11:22
Speaker 2: and they moved from Blackwell to Tonkawa, and she because
11:27
Speaker 2: she had to get a job, and she was teaching
11:29
Speaker 2: English in Tonkowa at the small college there, and the
11:35
Speaker 2: boys all went to work at the Ford Dealership. And
11:37
Speaker 2: there's a picture of the three brothers playing on a
11:41
Speaker 2: basketball team at the Ford Dealership and there my grandfather
11:47
Speaker 2: and two of his brothers.
11:49
Speaker 4: And you know, five.
11:50
Speaker 2: Years later, on the verge of the Great Depression, they
11:54
Speaker 2: bought the car dealership in nineteen twenty nine and then
12:00
Speaker 2: decided to move to Bartlesville in nineteen forty one, right
12:03
Speaker 2: as World War two is about to start, and they.
12:06
Speaker 4: Like a challenge or stop making vehicles.
12:09
Speaker 2: And you know, I like that part of the story
12:12
Speaker 2: because it just shows the you know, part of that
12:15
Speaker 2: sparks thing, the resilience that need to continue overcome and
12:21
Speaker 2: not be daunted by taking a more challenging path, so
12:25
Speaker 2: to speak, because you know, that choice to make that
12:29
Speaker 2: commitment to the community and doing the business the right
12:33
Speaker 2: way is is hard.
12:35
Speaker 4: It's harder every you know, there're an outlier and a lot.
12:38
Speaker 2: Of ways and doing that and it does take our
12:41
Speaker 2: customers making a choice to do business with us, you know,
12:44
Speaker 2: and you know I never take that for granted. It's
12:47
Speaker 2: and I'm constantly talking to the team about.
12:50
Speaker 4: How we can't and that you know, we all get.
12:53
Speaker 2: Caught up in our daily lives and the pressures and
12:56
Speaker 2: the stresses of life, and you know.
12:58
Speaker 4: That gives us cancer. But you you know that whole
13:07
Speaker 4: having that group.
13:08
Speaker 2: Around you that works with you, that believes in something
13:11
Speaker 2: that that's beyond just you know, a dollar, you know,
13:15
Speaker 2: makes makes a big difference, and that you know, I
13:18
Speaker 2: know Hopestone is all about that. And so you know
13:21
Speaker 2: you mentioned all the companies and individuals that support you
13:26
Speaker 2: and the impact you've had now in twelve or thirteen
13:29
Speaker 2: years of doing this in our community of.
13:32
Speaker 3: People, Yeah, hundreds of people.
13:34
Speaker 2: You be shocked now, you just you know, it's one
13:37
Speaker 2: of those things we don't see and don't really want
13:40
Speaker 2: to talk about a lot, right.
13:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, scary word, the very scary work.
13:45
Speaker 4: Yeah.
13:46
Speaker 2: No, it's one of those things that has to be
13:50
Speaker 2: made aware of. And you know, and especially that there's
13:54
Speaker 2: resources like what you offer, because a lot of times
13:57
Speaker 2: it's kind of hidden until you need it. I think
14:00
Speaker 2: what Homestone provides and that support network, and you know.
14:05
Speaker 4: It's kind of become whatever you need, go get it
14:08
Speaker 4: for me.
14:09
Speaker 3: That is exactly what it is.
14:11
Speaker 5: You know, we've grown so much and we've had so
14:13
Speaker 5: much support, and you know that we've been able to
14:18
Speaker 5: actually expand our programs so we can send people down
14:23
Speaker 5: to Houston and we can pay for their hotels day.
14:27
Speaker 5: You know, there's there's not too many organizations that can say, well,
14:33
Speaker 5: do you want to go to the second Opinion in Houston?
14:35
Speaker 5: Is that something your doctor thinks will be great? And
14:37
Speaker 5: they say, yeah, well, you know we can't. You know,
14:41
Speaker 5: it's hundreds of dollars to fly, it's hundreds of dollars
14:45
Speaker 5: to stay. And I just say, well, we're going to
14:48
Speaker 5: take care of that, and they look at me and
14:51
Speaker 5: I think they don't believe me sometimes until you know,
14:56
Speaker 5: I show them. You know, we have two thousand dollars
15:03
Speaker 5: for you. Do you think that'll fly you down there?
15:09
Speaker 3: Do you think.
15:09
Speaker 6: That'll help you with your hotel costs?
15:13
Speaker 5: You know?
15:13
Speaker 3: Or you drive? Yeah, it just takes all of that
15:17
Speaker 3: off of them.
15:18
Speaker 5: And they're like, oh my gosh, I can't tell you
15:23
Speaker 5: how many times I see tears.
15:25
Speaker 3: But that's what we're supposed to do.
15:28
Speaker 5: That's why we're on the planet to take care of
15:30
Speaker 5: each other, you know, and we don't have you know,
15:34
Speaker 5: we don't have this huge staff that we have, you know,
15:37
Speaker 5: tons of overhead and all that garbage buildings paid off.
15:41
Speaker 3: We run by volunteers.
15:43
Speaker 5: I have a phenomenal crew that comes in and cooks
15:46
Speaker 5: the meals. Organizations. LDS community has helped us a ton.
15:52
Speaker 5: All the local churches have helped us a ton with
15:55
Speaker 5: getting our day to day supplies, or coming in and cooking.
15:59
Speaker 3: Or you know, donating meat.
16:03
Speaker 5: You know, grass fed, grass finished beef to make our
16:06
Speaker 5: bone broth and all of those things that we do there.
16:09
Speaker 5: Everybody just pitches in, you know, so we don't all
16:14
Speaker 5: of the funding.
16:15
Speaker 3: All the money can go right where.
16:17
Speaker 5: It's supposed to go, you know, to take care of
16:21
Speaker 5: these individuals, help these families.
16:23
Speaker 2: I know raising money isn't easy always, but it seems
16:26
Speaker 2: like you guys have a special special I think when
16:32
Speaker 2: you do.
16:33
Speaker 5: The right thing for the right reasons, and you know,
16:36
Speaker 5: you don't ask a lot, you know, five bucks a week.
16:40
Speaker 5: I have. You know a young man who we helped
16:44
Speaker 5: his mother out ten years ago, and every two weeks
16:47
Speaker 5: he sends me ten bucks. You know, so his twenty
16:52
Speaker 5: dollars just fed a family.
16:54
Speaker 3: Of four for a week.
16:57
Speaker 5: You know.
16:57
Speaker 3: So it's that kind of stuff.
17:01
Speaker 5: Or you get a group of people, you know, you
17:02
Speaker 5: get five people sitting around a table, you each give
17:05
Speaker 5: me five bucks and I can send somebody down Oklahoma
17:09
Speaker 5: City for a second opinion with a gas card.
17:12
Speaker 4: Yeah, it doesn't.
17:13
Speaker 3: Take it doesn't take much. It's just everybody.
17:16
Speaker 5: And that's why we don't do federal funding because you know,
17:21
Speaker 5: and we're not part of the United Way.
17:23
Speaker 3: But I love United Way.
17:24
Speaker 5: They help us tremendously, but we have some things I
17:28
Speaker 5: don't want to know anything about.
17:30
Speaker 3: People.
17:31
Speaker 6: They have to fill out a lot of paperwork, they
17:34
Speaker 6: have to they're.
17:35
Speaker 3: Asked a ton of questions.
17:36
Speaker 5: I just need your name, your address, who do I
17:39
Speaker 5: contact in case of an emergency?
17:41
Speaker 3: In what you're diagnosis? That's all I care about. That's
17:44
Speaker 3: all I want, And.
17:46
Speaker 5: So so all the other stuff supportive. Yeah, just tell
17:51
Speaker 5: me what I need to do for you, tell me
17:53
Speaker 5: what you needity.
17:56
Speaker 6: That's right, that's right, that's what it's all about.
17:59
Speaker 3: That's why you put us.
18:01
Speaker 2: And these great events coming up, I mean, especially the
18:03
Speaker 2: Dad's Walk has become such a huge thing and people
18:07
Speaker 2: may not really.
18:08
Speaker 7: Understand how big it is and the kinds of acts
18:12
Speaker 7: that you get here for the country music part of it,
18:15
Speaker 7: oh yeah. And all from that inspiration of the Dad walking.
18:19
Speaker 5: That's how what it started was Dwayne made a commitment
18:23
Speaker 5: to walk for his friend with brain cancer, to raise
18:27
Speaker 5: money for his friend with brain cancer because she couldn't
18:32
Speaker 5: afford treatment, and so he started this walk. He was
18:36
Speaker 5: he was born and raised in Cocaine and he lives
18:39
Speaker 5: in Claremore.
18:41
Speaker 3: And so he did it. It was just him and.
18:45
Speaker 5: I think Trina, a young lady, and they walked and
18:51
Speaker 5: raised money and that was I believe this is our
18:54
Speaker 5: fourth year with Dad's Walk, you know. And he just
18:57
Speaker 5: called me up and he said his his sister in law.
19:01
Speaker 3: Was one of one of our ladies. And he just
19:04
