Dear Mr. Gilpin:

Re: Ovarian Cancer Community, Whitby, Ont. July 22nd, 2006

On behalf of our ovarian cancer women/carers, may we express our thanks to Janet/Joe Glover (Oshawa); Nick Lucarelli/Tom Theodore (Whitby) and Alan Risk (Retail Stores, Ontario) for their generous donation(s). Your staff, as individuals and members of the community, recognized the significance of this unique event and the positive responses were sincerely appreciated.

Our unique ovarian cancer survivourship event was coordinated solely for and by survivours/carers. Participants included Canada, U.S., England and Australia. Given the success of our event, we have established a new ovarian cancer tradition. Both Chicago (2007) and Annapolis (2008) are now being organized and requests have been made for 2009. The profound sense of accomplishment in recognizing the power of the individual – the human connection was exceptional. Our positive experience with Sobeys staff confirms for us that you are well-represented in this area of human compassion and need.

Please accept and extend our thanks for recognizing and proactively supporting those in our ovarian cancer community(s).

Sincerely;


Sandi Pniauskas
Ovarian Cancer Survivour
