Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital’s 2015 Annual Golf Tournament at the historic Norwood Hills Country Club attracted another strong turnout along its path toward supporting kids on their journeys home. The tournament included 18 holes of golf, lunch and dinner for golfers, silent and live auctions, and a golfer goodie bag featruning a Ranken Jordan pullover jacket. The dinner event also contained videos celebrating the success stories of Ranken Jordan.
This annual golf tournament now is hosted in memory of Phillip W. Mull, Jr. Known as “The Mullster” by his friends, he worked more than 25 years for Ryder Transportation and served as Director of National Accounts. Phil’s passion for children and love of golf inspired the event, which embodies his closest beliefs – the importance of helping other families in their most trying moments and believing in the power of a child’s spirit.
