September 5, 2008

Carl Roe passed away September 5, 2008 from complications caused by pancreatic cancer. Our goal with this fund is to raise awareness of the severity of pancreatic cancer by describing our personal experience. Our focus is to spread information about this silent but deadly disease. We want to honor this person who was so important in our lives by trying to give hope to others who will have to travel his same path. We hope to raise awareness about this disease and help raise the funds necessary to develop a better means of detection and eventually a cure. Carl was taken away too soon by a disease that does not have a symptom until well after the disease has developed. We thank everyone for your support in this fight. We will continue to support this wonderful cause until a cure has been found.
