Relay for Life helps restore hope

Wednesday, June 27, 2012

To the editor:

The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life Survivor Chairmen want to thank everyone that came out and supported our precious survivors. It was a beautiful night that truly gave "hope" that a cure for this cruel disease can be found.

We wish to give special thanks to the following people and groups that donated time and money to make the night very special for the survivors: Harry Meyers for the barbecue, Cobb funeral Home for the water and balloons, Beth Fitzgerald for the beautiful cake, the Relay teams for items for the "goodie bags," the FFA students and Nucor scholarship winners for stuffing the bags and doing anything else they were asked to do, the Cars and Cycles for a Cure, and especially to Linda Peterson, Relay chairman, for the great job she did to make the Relay a success.

Thank you to everyone in North Mississippi County who have worked together for many months to make this special night a success as we work to eradicate cancer.
