Members of Drew's Crew at the 2010 Baldwinsville Relay for Life fundraiser for the American Cancer Society on Friday, June 18th.
One of my sister Linda’s favorite sayings was to make lemonade from lemons when Life knocks you down. This is what my team, Drew’s Crew, did last Friday night (and into Saturday morning) by fund raising for and attending the 2010 Baldwinsville (New York) Relay for Life. We were one team of forty-four. Drew’s Crew ended up the event as the number two team raising $4,410 for the American Cancer Society to help in research to find cures for cancer. In all, 684 people participated and raised a total of $48,881!

Luminaries created by the author's daughter in honor of her aunt and grandfather who both died of cancer in the last year.
My daughter created these luminaries for her Aunt Linda and her Grandfather. Both died of cancer in the last year.
