Helping the Kingston family: The Wax Bar’s fundraiser

A local business has announced a special effort to help the family of Dr. Ed Kingston, the 38-year-old volunteer youth-soccer coach who died suddenly last Saturday during a game at Riverview Playfield. A fund has been set up, as reported previously, at edkingston.com; now, we have word that The Wax Bar in The Triangle is going to donate all its proceeds during a four-hour period next Tuesday, to support the family. Wax Bar manager Lynaia tells WSB that her family is involved with youth soccer too and knows the Kingstons, and wanted to do something to help. The benefit event will be 9 am-1 pm on Tuesday (October 18th) and they’re taking appointment calls right now – since they’re closed Sundays/Mondays, you’ll want to call today or tomorrow. 206-935-4990.
