I'm on a mission to support those facing cancer.

Dear Family and Friends,

First things first. Thank you so very much for your previous support for the BMO Ride for Cancer fundraiser.  I’m proud to say this will be my 6th year cycling 130 km on  Sept 27, 2025.  Once again I will ride in special memory of my mom and sister Ann, along with more and more friends diagnosed with cancer.   For some reason (lol age?) it isn’t getting easier to train for 130 km ride with lots of rolling hills. And neither is asking for money to raise funds to continue important research impacting so many of us.  Agnes and Sophie and their families now live in NS;  many family and friends are here in NB.  This research serves all of Atlantic Canada and beyond.   

I’m reaching out to connect and let you know I’m still at it.  If possible, it would be fantastic once again to have your support, and even financial support.  

Currently, 1 in 2 people in our population are diagnosed in their lifetime with cancer.  The list of loved ones affected by cancer keeps growing, and so must our commitment to conquering it. 

To help combat these alarming stats, our BMO Ride for Cancer community will equip our QEII experts with the diagnostic tools they need to deliver some of Canada’s most leading-edge cancer care available — ensuring our loved ones have the best possible chance of conquering cancer.

Funds raised by our 2025 BMO Ride for Cancer community will unlock more precise, targeted therapies that have fewer side effects and allow for earlier detection of cancer recurrence for patients being treated at the QEII Cancer Centre, Atlantic Canada’s largest and most specialized cancer treatment hospital.

Thanks so much for your support and, if possible, your generous donation to my Ride today!

Wishing you good health and strength and much happiness in the year ahead.
