Why I am doing this?

As you may or may mot know this is my second time walking. I walked in 2006 in honor of mother Leona Edna Earl Searan, she loss the use of legs and her life during her cancer struggle 20 years prior and for my best friend Nancy Chunn who was diagnosed with basically the same cancer as my mom's just prior to my registering for the walk. She passed away in October after I had completed the walk.

Why am I doing it this time. Because my daughter Emily who was coach and trainer last time now age 14. Asked me do it again, and yes she is coaching me again.

How you can help

This is an agreement between you and me. This is a good cause worthy of support.

But in order for me support this cause I need your help, I agreed to raise $1,800.00 to this. You may think it sounds funny that I have to pay to walk in this event.

But what if this event paid for mammogram of a friend that normally would not have gotten one, and she still among the living. Its worth it to me.

Please help with a donation even if its just a dollar.
