Treatment has come a very long way since I was treated for A.L.L.(Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia) thanks to you!! I still remember my Mom driving me up to Laguna Seca while I was still fighting to see the race. We went to every race there and every race at Long Beach since then!!

Last year my wife was diagnosed with Papillary carcinoma (Thyroid Cancer). While this is a slow moving and more manageable cancer, the thought of cancer rocked our family. She is the center of my world and the mother to our 7 kids. She is simply amazing...! At this point, and after surgeries and radiation, she has nearly recovered 100%. I am grateful to have my wife and will continue to be there for her to fight off this terrible disease. Ryan - By the grace of God, we'll be in the stands in Fontana pulling for you together next weekend. We can't wait to spend our anniversary weekend (19 years)together, enjoying the time we do have on this earth and making the most of it. See you in the winners Circle! - Paul and Tracy Miller My mother died at 40yo due to cancer.. didn’t make didn’t see our wedding or her grandchildren; numerous friends and family have all been taken too soon.

I have become dedicated to do what I can to beat this horrible predator. We never gave up hope, but it was too much for her to overcome. I am happy that groups like this contribute to the fight. I am proud to attend the Yellow Party in her memory. My wIfe Vicki lost her courageous battle with cancer last October. I have become dedicated to do what I can to beat this horrible predator.

As a diabetic alert dog, he was a Service Dog extrodinaire and saved my life many times. He shared all his love with the Soldiers at Camp Atterbury when we went to visit too. Sadly we lost him to cancer Feb 15, 2012. Lugnut, buddy....you live on in my heart. May you be waiting at Heaven's Gate when I pass. I love you. To my gentle loving life saving best friend Lugnut.

Brenner of Indianapolis. Steve's fight with cancer ended on Dec. 9, 2011. He was just 54 years old. Steve was a genuinely good guy, and those who knew him were lucky to have him in our lives. Steve has the best seat in the house for every race now. See you at the finish line, buddy. Just made my donation in memory of Steven R. Brenner of Indianapolis.
