Relay for Life Celebration Table

Every year, Pat and her husband participate in our local Relay for Life - one of the Cancer Society's yearly events to help make people aware that there is hope if you or a loved one have been diagnosed with cancer.  It is a chance to fight back against a horrible disease.

To mark the event, Pat created a table for one that celebrates survivors. The theme color for survivors is purple, so naturally, Pat chose that as the table color.
