held on Thursday, March 23rd at the Lucky Strike Lanes in Boston, MA. The Rally at the Alley began in 2005 as one of the ancillary events to benefit the families of the RSMGC. This year’s bowl-a-thon, as part of the Randy Smith Memorial, will continue that tradition by benefiting the family of Joe Murphy. Joe, founder and president of Planview Exhibits, passed away unexpectedly from a heart attack on January 2, 2006. Joe, who was 44, is survived by daughters Amanda Marie Powers age 22, Mckayla Murphy age 12, and Meghan Murphy age 10; as well as granddaughter Addison Powers, age 18 months. All proceeds from this event will directly benefit his daughters and granddaughter.
