April 11, 2024 will mark 15 years our mom has been gone because of ovarian cancer.
So from April 2023-April 2024, we as sisters, plan to participate in 15 5K Run/Walks across the country, with a goal of raising $15,000 for ovarian cancer awareness and research. Please help support in memory of a wife, daughter, sister, cousin, aunt, friend — our mother, Donna Carle (D’Amico).
