Deb Simons
Why We Relay My late wife Deb, battled Cancer for 3 years. She was strong and never complained. Her focus was on her kids and taking care of them. Although she had 2 major operations and many months of Chemotherapy, she maintained adoring love and care for Alden, Caden, Noah and Eve (ages 12, 11, 9, and 6 at the time). The support we received from friends and family was so amazing. I am very thankful of how they would make us dinners, help drive the kids to school or practices, and visit Deb at home and the hospital. Deb passed away in June 2014. We were so lucky to have our family and friends support network. Many people don't have a support network. For those that don't , the American Cancer Society is there for them. Funds raised, support cancer patient programs as well as groundbreaking research that can help save lives. Please consider giving a donation to help this amazing cause.

Thank you for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against cancer.
Cancer hits far too close to home, so the funds you raise will help do the same. Through services and resources like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near hospitals, and a live 24/7 helpline, cancer patients and their families will feel the love. Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.
Since 1991 we have invested $3.43 billion in cancer research.
We have received over 360,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2023.
Cancer patients benefited from the ACS transportation support through our Road To Recovery program and transportation grants in 2023, with nearly 769,000 rides provided.
Many thanks to our generous sponsors for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against cancer.

This isn’t what I wanted.
Cancer has touched all of us in some way. And we want to stop this disease in its tracks. We'll spend the next few weeks fundraising for the American Cancer Society. Then, on the day of the event, we'll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.
Together, we'll be a part of making a difference in this important cause.
