On April 8th of this year, our family suffered a heartbreaking loss — we said goodbye to my sister-in-law Sherry Wolcott after a courageous yearlong battle with stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. Through every challenge, she never lost hope. Her strength, determination, and grace in the face of such a cruel disease left a lasting impact on all of us and now, I feel called to give back in any way I can. That’s why I’m participating in the 11 Day Power Play — to honor her memory, to support the incredible work being done at Roswell, and to help other families facing the same fight.

Throughout her journey, I witnessed firsthand the incredible care, compassion, and dedication shown by the team at Roswell Park Cancer Institute. They stood by her side every step of the way — fighting with her, for her, and giving our family moments of comfort and hope when we needed them most.

I am playing in the #11DPP Community Shift this summer. It will be a grueling three hour shift but nothing compared to what cancer patients endure. Please support me to #PutCancerOnIce. Proceeds of the event will support cutting-edge research and wellness programs at Roswell Park, Make-A-Wish WNY, Camp Good Days, Roswell Park and Oishei Children's Cancer and Blood Disorders Program and The Petey Fund.
