It was a great honor to kick off the SURVIVOR'S LAP at the 2012 Relay for Life in Paw Paw Saturday.

35 teams raised $75,000 for The American Cancer Society in 24 hours at the event at Paw Paw Middle School.

I almost started crying when I saw the t-shirt this year.  All the cancer survivors were given a purple shirt that said, "I AM HOPE".  Wow.  When you put it that way, it is a great thing when you're going through it to see those that have beat it.  I am so grateful.
