Erin Raises Over $500 for American Cancer Society

On Mother's Day weekend Erin ran her first 5K, the Sole Burner 5K run/walk sponsored by the American Cancer Society.  Here is what she had to say about the experience: "My mom was my true inspiration while I was running. I wanted to walk so bad. I just kept telling myself that my mom didn’t give up and she kept going when she wasn’t feeling the greatest. Some of my friends gave me an angel necklace after she passed. I wore the necklace at the race and held it when I felt like I wanted to stop running. It was a great feeling knowing that I finished the race for her."
We are so very proud of YOU, Erin, and know your mom is too.  I'm sure she was guiding every step you took.

    Good job, Erin! Your aunt Debbie has told me lots of great things about you. Thanks for sharing your photos with us.
    p.s. I just ordered a kathy's bag for my sister's 40th birthday.
