I lost my dad to colon cancer and it changed my life forever. That is my motivation to Relay, rain or shine or even snow!

This will be my 5th time participating in the Relay For Life.

We have endured many different types of weather, from rain to snow and cold blowing winds. But you know the thing that keeps me going is knowing that I only have to put up with this weather for 12 hours. My dad went through months of pain and humiliation. Cancer takes your dignity too. I Relay for him and he is my inspiration to keep going for this awful disease that affects pretty much everyone's life.

I hope one day this disease will have a cure and with everyone's support we can get closer every year.
