Very few have NOT had cancer touch their lives. Hearing that diagnosis of “you have cancer” is so devastating to all. Supporting Relay for Life means supporting survivors, care givers, family, friends, and honoring those who have lost their battle to cancer.

Joke: Jeanette McNiesh – Little girl in school was asked by her teacher what her favorite animal was. She replied “fried chicken”. That didn’t go over so well with the teacher and she was sent to the principal’s office. Well, she had to make several visits to the principal’s office that day. Ask Jeanette about the little girl’s other “favorites” :o)
