the attention of Julie Ruff, Special Assistant to the Mayor; PO Box 147

A special part of this year's breakfast is that it has been renamed the
Isabel Law Breast Cancer Breakfast; in memory of the late Ms. Isabel
Law. Isabel was a dedicated member of Mayor's Campaign Against Breast
Cancer Committee. Isabel, was a Registered Nurse at the Baptist campus
of Palmetto Health; a nurse navigator for breast cancer patients. She
was a 26 year breast cancer survivor and was memorialized at her funeral
which was held on September 19, 2008. Isabel will truly be missed but
her memory will live on as the fight against cancer continues. She
served as an advocate for progress in cancer research for all of our
citizens who are battling this disease. |
