My personal message:

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for Gilda's Club! 

This is my first time walking a half-marathon.  I couldn't think of a better person to walk this race for than my loving mom, Bunnie.  She was full of positive energy and lived life for others ALWAYS, especially her children.  I'm so fortunate to have had her in my life for 33 years.  Although I miss her terribly, she motivates me to try to be the mom that she was and the selfless wife she dedicated her life to being. 

I know God had a really great "room" for her in heaven and that is why she had to go.  She continues to live in all of those who knew her and for that I know she would be walking with me if she could.  (She will be there in spirit with a smile on and laughing her contagious laugh!) 

Donating through this website you will be supporting Gilda's Club, myself and most importantly my mom, a colon cancer survivor for 18 years. 

A HUGE THANK YOU for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
