My Story: Running for My Mom, Treasa 💜
On October 6, 2026, my mom, Treasa, lost her battle with pancreatic cancer. If you knew my mom, you knew she was a true giver. She always put others before herself, showed up when people needed her, and gave from the heart. Her kindness, generosity, and love touched so many lives, and her legacy will live on through everyone who knew her.
Now, it’s our turn to give back in her honor. Our family and friends are participating in the Turkey Trot 5K to raise awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research. Every step is for Treasa and every donation brings hope to families affected by this devastating disease. Thank you for helping us honor my mom and continue her legacy of giving. 💜
