The Samaritan Center at the Jersey Shore was honored to be the beneficiary of proceeds from the 2025 “Friends of Stroh & Osh” annual fundraiser at Bar Anticipation in Lake Como, NJ.

Executive Director, Susan Tellone and board member, Steve Jacobus, joined the annual reunion of Upsala College classmates on December 4, 2025, to celebrate the lives of William Strohmenger and Michael O'Shaughnessy. The group generously raised over $7,000, which will assist in continuing Samaritan Center’s mission.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Tom Staugaitis and Wally Friedauer for organizing the event and send our most sincere appreciation for their continued support. 💙💛
