A terrible family legacy
Tuesday, May 19, 2009 By: Darlene Edmunds
Why do I relay, and why do I volunteer every year? Well, the short answer is that I would do anything in my power to wipe this vicious disease off the face of the earth, and volunteering is such an easy thing to do.

A valiant sister who lost, a determined mom who survives
Monday, February 2, 2009 By: Sherri Solomko
Tragically, after 10 years my sister lost her battle with cancer, and my mom has endured 3 rounds of this horrible disease and still marches on...we will keep "relaying/rallying" in honor of my sister and in proud awe of our mom.
