A Wonderful Man & Inspiring Story for Leukemia Victims

Jon Kenyon, a family friend, was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) in 2005. Jon and his family had an extremely difficult struggle but persevered and stayed strong through it all. Jon and I shared a passion for sea kayaking and I wanted to use this passion as a way to remember Jon and raise money for research. I am completing this paddle for all those sea kayakers like Jon who are not able to get out and enjoy the ocean and all it has to offer and to support their recovery. I have reached my initial goal of $10,000 but with Jon's passing this year, I want to increase that goal to at least $15,000. Please give generously. I thank you, Jon and his family thank you as do the many others who will benefit from your donation.
