If youβre from Olyphant, Throop, Scott Township, or anywhere in the Mid-Valley, you probably know my dad β Michael P. Hughes.
He served as a police officer in Throop, worked with multiple fire departments including Olyphant and Scott Township, and spent years in construction, including projects for Allied and the Lackawanna County Prison. His life has always been about showing up, working hard, and helping others.
Right now my dad is fighting Stage 3 lung cancer, and our family is facing a difficult road with medical costs. On Sunday, February 15th, weβre holding a Take-Out Pasta Dinner Benefit to help ease that burden and allow him to focus on getting better.

Whether you can come out for a meal, make a donation, or simply share this post, it truly means the world to us. This community has always been family, and we are grateful for every prayer and every show of support.
Thank you for standing with my dad. π
