The DeKalb County Unit of the American Cancer Society seeks your support in the “Love Lights a Tree fundraising campaign.” This annual event gives area residents the opportunity to honor a special person during the holiday season and aid in cancer research.
The “Love Lights a Tree” project is designed to raise money not only for research, but includes cancer education and patient services. Donations in honor of and in memory of a special person can be made throughout the holiday season. The persons you honor or remember do not necessarily have to have suffered from cancer.
The names of honorees are as follows:
McKinley Jones, Shelly Cross, Peggy Roller, Polly Turner, Carolyn Walden, James Walden, Linda Judkins, Carolyn Sheets, Jack Midgett, Kent Smithson, Roy Breeding, Walter Johnson, Jo Doris Johnson, Earl D. France, Radley Hendrixson, Violet Fuson, Lisa Anderson, Robbie Scott, Kassie M. Boyd, Vada Pauline Herndon, Vera Bell Davenport, Vanice King Davenport.
