Our foundation’s wish was to help/bless others who have been faced with the dreadful diagnosis of a blood cancer…in Michelle’s memory. Had Michelle beat her leukemia (and all the complications) that took her life, this is what she would have wanted to do. We now believe she puts great caring people in our paths to do this…. We are beyond grateful to have received a very generous donation from the Peter C and Emajean Cook Foundation (Thanks Laura & Paul) for us to do exactly what Michelle’s wanted us to do…help others. Thank you for your generous support…your blessing will bless others.
