Each year our Relay selects a Survivor from the community as an Honorary Chair. We usually receive several nominations for this important role. After reading these beautiful, moving stories, it is so difficult to pick one. I would love to hear how other Relay's go about choosing their Honorary Chair.
This year we have decided to pick a husband and wife who are very well know in our community and who are great supporters to our community. Their law firm is a corporate sponsor and have been for years. The wife is a cancer patient who has beat it and got it again and beat and so forth and so on. Her husband has been her biggest supporter, he drives her 8hrs to the nearest cnacer research facilities (Houston). We picked them because they are a suvivor and a caregiver. We're going to interview them and run their testimony on our local channel leading up to Relay. Hope this helps.
