Welcome to our ONE Komen community team page!

In 2019 Alicia, my beautiful wife, best friend and mother of my two amazing boys was diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Cancer.  At the age of 48, Alicia fought like no other person could.  After recovering from her surgeries she would attend her chemo sessions and immediately go to my oldest son’s football games.  Days later she was back in the gym working out and running 10 miles a week as she had done since she was 17 years old.  She was determined to beat this disease with everything she had for her two boys, never missing a football, baseball or hockey game.  Her will to see her children grow allowed her to fight and continue to be the greatest mother and friend anyone could have asked.  Christmas, Halloween and Thanksgiving remained unchanged.  Her smile radiated a room when she entered and never did she want or ask for any attention.  Every day Alicia would make her way to work to be “normal” and to not talk about her illness “because if I do I will know I am sick”, which she did until 9 days before she passed away. When the cancer came back she fought even harder and harder until September 22, 2022 when she lost her courageous fight.  She was my angel on earth that taught me and anyone that met her that kindness and being a mom will let you do amazing things.  Alicia loved the beach and putting her feet in the sand and looking at what beautiful things the world gives us every day.  She made myself and my two boys see the same thing, as I was blessed with 33 amazing years that I spent with the most beautiful person on this earth.  She was my angel that I and our two children will never forget.  We love you always and I long to see your smile and to walk with you hand in hand on a beach for eternity.  We will all continue to walk in her memory, for a cousin, friend and family until a cure is found.

As a member of this team, we are each playing a part in helping Susan G. Komen® in their ONE mission to end breast cancer forever.

The money raised will fund research to discover more effective treatments, as well as vital patient support to help connect people with things like breast cancer screenings, diagnostics, treatment assistance and so much more.

We're stronger together.  United as ONE, we can support those who need help today, while fearlessly searching for tomorrow's cures.
