Randy Blythe, lead singer for Lamb of God and friend, auctioned his Grammy Medal on ebay for MMD research a few months ago.... Dan, who wants to remain anonymous, won the medal at $2,500. After learning more about MMD and about Nicholas and Elliott, Dan gifted the medal to the Stone boys.

Dan wrote to us, "It seemed a logical way to perpetuate Randy’s selfless donation of the medallion. I’m a big Lamb of God fan, so this was a real opportunity to make the experience complete."
