This is the year of mothers and daughters. I am joined with my daughter Molly. Molly has always walked by my side for each walk, she has trained with me, ran errands with me, patiently supported my efforts for the CURE. I am so blessed to have Molly with me this year.

My dear friends Sharon & her daughter Brianna will walk again with me for the 3rd time! Brianna not only will walk with us but she will volunteer at the Cleveland 3 Day! What a girl.

When a dear friend of our community was diagnosed with breast cancer I was DEVASTATED. Chris Rademacher my friend, who supported and loved me through Abby's battle was diagnosed. As I was suffocated with tears I got a text message from another dear friend Jill Key. I believe it said: "order some more t-shirts the girls and are going to kick some cancer ass!" Jill is joined by her daughters Danielle, Kayla & Katie.

A friend of our family Jim Langreder will join us too. Loved by Abby and all of my family he will be the "fun" in our team. I am sure of it. I just have to convince him he cannot have an assistant in a golf cart drive by him for support!
