This weekend I will be remembering my father who I lost on May 3rd after he lost his battle with Lung Cancer. I will be walking (my dog and cane in tow) with my Soroptimist friends and my family to remember what a great guy my dad was.

The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life is the largest grossing fundraiser for a non-profit. this 24-hour walk is a great way to remember those we loved and honor those that won their fight against cancer. www.cancer.org.

Among those I will be honoring and remembering are: my dad, Aunt Ida, grandpa Don, Brian Mammen, my grandmother Clair (survived Colon Cancer), my mother and I (who have survived Survical Cancer), Larry C. (a friend's father going through a tough time right now with cancer), and hundreds of others who I have lost to cancer or who we have celebrated their win against the disease...who are you remembering or honoring? Join the fight too and find a Relay for Life event in your area http://www.relayforlife.org/relay/
