Larry and Susan DeBuse, formerly of Greengate Grove in Palmview, were honored at the Larry DeBuse Invitational Golf Tournament, held at Shary Golf Course on March 6, 2024. The DeBuse family has returned to their home in Bella Vista, AR, as Larry continues his fight against Parkinson’s Disease.

Kathy Roberts and her volunteers organized the event to raise funds for the Parkinson’s Foundation, Inc. and continues Larry’s annual golf outing. This year’s event featured a nine-hole, four-person scramble with a full slate of 12 teams. The event was capped off by luncheon, and an award ceremony emceed by Jesse Hansen. Congratulations go to first place winners, the Kathy Roberts’ Team, who shot 2 under par. Each player on the Roberts’ Team won four 18-hole rounds at Shary Golf Course.

This year’s event also exceeded our goal and raised over $6,100. Congratulations to the winning team and all other participants. Over the last three years the DeBuse Tournament has raised over $14,700 for the fight against Parkinson’s Disease.
