Walking "Relay for Life" this Weekend
Our company, ThreeWill, has created a team for "Relay for Life" this year and plan to make this an annual fundraiser.  This is a fundraiser for The American Cancer Society.  Our family went last year and it was quite a moving experience to see Cancer Survivors and current Cancer Patients participating in this walk. 
 
I participated last year in this event with my family and it was a fun family event that touched your soul.  The principal’s daughter for the elementary school that my kids attended was walking this event with a respirator and she died weeks later.  It is amazing to see the brave people that continue to have a sense of dignity as they go through a life threatening fight.  You also saw what appeared to be many "normal" people walking in the "survivor's walk" that you would not have guessed to be cancer survivors (cancer effects all walks of life... it knows no boundaries...).

If you want to sponsor Linda or I on this walk, you can go to one of the below links:

We will have someone from ThreeWill walking from 7pm this Friday to 7am on Saturday.  If you are local to Alpharetta, come on out to the track at Alpharetta High School (see the ThreeWill Event Calendar for details).
