 | Chad’s friends, Matt and Laura, are remembering him on their special day. As part of their gift registry, they’ve offered their guests the option of donating to Chad’s cause. As the big day approaches, Chad’s total keeps going up! Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose. ~ Tennessee Williams Chad lives on through his friends and we are grateful for their generosity. |

I can make sure that his life makes a difference.
 Megan ran the Vancouver BMO Marathon - she hadn’t trained for it, or run farther than 24km before but she figured she could beat Oprah’s marathon time of 4 hours and 29 minutes.
