My Reason to Relay & Garage Sale Reminder


The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is more than just an event to me. It is my personal opportunity to help save lives from cancer by supporting the American Cancer Society.

We originally started participating after the Petersen's lost Vone and then Claude to cancer.  Since that time my sister Janaee and best friend Britney have both become survivors of thyroid cancer and my Grandpa Farrell suffered from prostate cancer which contributed to his death.  Craig's brother Bruce is currently fighting against cancer.

Tomorrow we will be holding at garage sale from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at 264 East Main in Wellsville.  All proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society.  Please take time to stop by and check it out.  If you have anything you would like to donate it isn't too late.  Give one of us a call and we will come pick it up tonight.  Just leave a message at 245-4500.

It's amazing to think that millions of people will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Somebody close to us may be one of them.
But, by taking part in Relay, I am helping the American Cancer Society save lives by:

  • Helping people stay well by helping them take steps to prevent cancer or detect it early, when it’s most treatable
  • Helping people get well by being in their corner around the clock to guide them through every step of their cancer experience
  • Finding cures by funding groundbreaking research that helps us understand cancer’s causes, determine how best to prevent it and discover new ways to cure it
  • Fighting back by working with lawmakers to pass laws to defeat cancer and rally communities worldwide to join the fight


Please support my efforts by making a donation or by joining my Relay For Life team. Together, we have the power to help create a world where cancer can no longer claim another year of anyone’s life.

Thank You!!!
