My Story…
Doing It for Denise 💗
On December 17, 2025, our family lost my beautiful Auntie Denise to metastatic breast cancer. She was a wife, mom, grandma, sister, aunt, friend, and someone whose love and kindness touched everyone lucky enough to know her.
Denise lived her life rooted in faith, family and generosity. She believed deeply in the power of kindness and doing small things with great love. Even through cancer, her strength, positivity and faith continued to shine.
This year, we’re Doing It for Denise.
We’ll walk in her memory, celebrate her life and raise money for METAvivor to fund metastatic breast cancer research, so other families may be given something we desperately wish ours had been given: more time. More birthdays. More memories. More tomorrows.
My goal is $5,000, and every donation gets us one step closer.
We miss Denise more than words can say, but we’ll continue carrying her love and legacy forward.
They never stop fighting. Neither will we. 💗
