Did a benefit for American Cancer Society last night at our Church. Our band was asked to play and I was HONORED to MC the event.

My wife lost her mother at 42 and her sister at 40 to breast cancer. My dad died of Leukemia.

Very emotional night but we raised some money and it was a very successful night.

God Bless everyone that have fought this battle and to family and friends that have had to feel the pain!

Give whenever you are able and know that every $ u give is VERY MUCH appreciated!

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!

Lost my Dad to cancer at the young age of 62. I know that sounds old to some of you but there was lots more I needed to learn from him. Don't take your loved ones for granted, let them know you cherish every moment you are with them.

My cousin lost her daughter to leukemia at the age of 3. can you believe that crap? My daughter was 4 at the time and they were so close it still makes me tear up to talk about it 27 years later.

I have done fund raising of all kinds for the leukemia/lymphoma society every year since then, and I will never stop until a cure is found. Many of us in Massachusetts are blessed to live near Childrens Hospital, the Leahy Clinic, and have the Jimmy Fund as part of our daily lives.

aw shucks Ray, what kind of person wouldn't? I had no choice in the matter. I only wish I was awakened before the family tragedy. Years of potential help wasted.

My father died from a brain tumor when he was 57. It really hit hard and still hurts. My daughter has chaired or co-chaired a Relay for Life team for the last three years. The event is also this Friday. Last year the school and all the relay teamsset a record and raised over $174,000 (that is not a typo) during the one night event. Very proud of how hard she works
