Our Inspiration

Sarah was our Remembered Hero for the 2010 LTN Walk. Sadly, she passed away in 2009 from leukemia. She was an amazing person, full of life and positivity. Some of her favorite interests included traveling, reading and she was a huge Georgia football fan!











This is Krista. Sadly, she passed away in 2006 from Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Her legacy lives on by her two children, Jason and Lindsey. Krista was our Remembered Hero at the 2010 LTN Walk.

Jordan is a 13 year old who loves, baseball, football, and boating. He was diagnosed with ALL T-cell Leukemia last year and has bravely been fighting since. His treatment is ongoing, but he is doing extremely well.













This is Cynthia. She was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma when she was 18 years old. Since going into remission, she has returned to school and works part time. Her positive attitude and drive can be seen a thousand miles away. She is a volunteer with LLS and helps bring awareness to young adults about blood cancers. Cynthia was our Honored Hero for our 2010 Atlanta LTN Walk.







Funds raised throught Light The Night go towards helping many patients like these. Not all stories end happily, some are filled with loss, but they all have one thing in common: hope for a cure! Thank you to these families and so many more for sharing their stories, putting a face and a name to these horrible diseases is never easy. All these patients have many similarities, but one stands out the most, the will and desire to live, and that is why they are our inspirations!
