Ted Kennedy Rocks the DNC!

Senator Kennedy still has it and boy did he rock the stage last night at the DNC in Denver. A man who stands his ground and "does what he says he is going to do" ignored the doctors and his wife's advisement and headed to Denver to support Obama. Great speech and a great HERO Among Us!!

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/
