I'm Riding For

Bob, Nancy, Jim, Nana

Mom (Nancy) had bile duct cancer and passed in 2015. I'm also riding for Dad (Bob), Jim (father-in-law) and Nana. They all had cancer of some sort and it affected our family in many ways. Cancer is a horrible disease, and all the more so when it happens to children. Now that we have two granddaughters, the possibility strikes so much closer to home. Let's all do what we can to end cancer now.

My Story

26 Jun 2025

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from the disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.
