When several other team members were asked why they donate so much of their time and effort to this cause they said:
“Because I have had so many friends die from cancer. I am a cancer survivor myself for 13 years. I don’t want anybody’s children or grandchildren to have to go through what so many others have gone through with this tragic disease”—Carolyn Leake serving since 1998.
‘Because I lost my brother to cancer and it was quite a shock to all of us. This is something we hope the next generation floes not have to go through. I myself am a survivor and also have another team member who is a two-time sur- • vivor. This is a worthy cause that I and all my team members feel strongly about”—Ellen Timbers serving since 1999.
“It is very hard to say ‘no’ to Ester Settle. That’s how we got started”—Mike and Betty Mahoney serving since 1994
