Jennifer Kirchmer Young.

Hey Jenn -
I was just checking in to see how you are doing. I am really looking forward to Sunday! I also wanted to ask if it was ok if I participated in a Relay for Life here at Schalick High School in your honor. You are doing such an amazing job of battling cancer, and I want to be involved in raising money to help continue the fight against cancer. Can't wait until Sunday!!

Oh Rebecca, I would be honored. Thank you for thinking of me.

I'm really looking forward to Sunday too, but I hope it's not too much for everyone. I know what a drive it is to Sue's from your place and that you have to get back in time for dinner, but I really appreciate all of you girls for coming up to see me.

Looking forward to Sunday too!

We relay for those still battling.
We relay for those who have gone to heaven.
We relay for their family and friends left behind.
We relay for…

It is an event filled with compassion and community.
It is an event filled with love.
But most of all, it is event filled with
