I received an email from a women in my town to attend a fund raiser for the 3 Day Cancer Walk. She noticed my name on the Crew list, saw that I lived in the same small town, and thought it would be nice to meet one of the people who work to support this cause. I was unable to attend due to family commitments, so I sent her an email wishing her much success with the event, and to tell her what assignments that Peggy, Ashley and I had for the 3 Day Walk. I told her that since I was on Medical Transport, I hoped that I did not get to meet her in that venue. I read my email this morning, and here is what I found.

Yes we did have a great night at Potbelly’s raising over $600 for the Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk.  I too hope me and my team do not need your services but I am very thankful you will be there just in case.

Please thank Peggy and your daughter Ashley for volunteering at lunch crew.  I will look for them.  Thank you to your whole family for dedicating yourselves to this worthy cause.  I am going in tomorrow for round 5 of my chemo treatments and I am grateful to people like you who make it possible for all of us to walk in November.

Hope to see some of your family at the 3-Day!
