My Story…
This November marks 3 years since we found out my dad had pancreatic cancer. He fought for almost two and a half years before we lost him this past April.
This picture was taken the day my dad received his purple comfort blanket from project purple, along with a really nice letter reminding him, and us, to never give up the fight. His friends used to call him “Hurlcules” back in high school and that nickname couldn’t have been more fitting. He was tough long before his diagnosis and he carried that strength every moment throughout his battle.
I created team Jamie Strong in honor of him. Joining this year’s turkey trot is our way of keeping his fight alive and supporting others still facing this disease.
Donate to help Kimberly raise money for Project Purple's Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month Turkey Trot 2025’s fundraising campaign.
