I lost the greatest man I’ve ever known on January 6, 2012 from brain cancer. From the moment that he was diagnosed he made sure to give his family all the time and love that he had, creating memories that he knew would stay with us forever. My dad taught me that age is a gift and to never, ever give up. Brain cancer research, education in general, was incredibly important to him, and he made sure that his body be donated to science to help find a cure for this disease. I love him and miss him every single day, and I’m so honored to run this race for him and to further his commitment to research!
