Each year, Cancer Services host its Tribute Dinner, which is an evening designed to provide our community an opportunity to pause, treasure the memories of people who have been touched by cancer, and pay tribute to them, whether a cancer survivor, caregiver, physician or lost loved one. Please mark your calendars for our annual Tribute Dinner, which will take place on Thursday, October 13, 2011. This year’s theme is “Navigating Life’s Detours” and includes a chance to share memories with family and friends, and enjoy a nice dinner and entertainment.

We are pleased to welcome Regina Brett as this year’s speaker. Regina is a columnist for The Plain Dealer in Cleveland, OH; author of “God Never Blinks: 50 Lessons for Life’s Little Detours;” and breast cancer survivor. Her book is an inspirational collection of essays and stories about the lessons life taught her along the detours of life. She was named a Pulitzer Prize finalist twice, in 2009 and 2008 for columns she wrote for The Plain Dealer.
