The support we received was so tremendous, I can’t even begin to put into words everything friends, family, co-workers, teammates, schoolmates near and far did for us. Throughout this journey we always said we wanted to do something to give back. The day of Randy’s funeral, a dear friend pulled me aside and said he wanted to start an annual golf tournament in Randy’s name. I absolutely loved this idea! Randy loved to golf and always loved spending time with friends on the golf course. He said we could donate the money to whatever I chose to do with it. After careful thought, we decided to start a scholarship fund. This would be our way of giving back!
Cancer can destroy so many things. It can destroy you physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, spiritually, and the list goes on. There were many conversations over our worries of sending the kids to college. We don’t want that to be a worry for someone, when there are so many other things to deal with when facing a cancer diagnosis. The Not Your Average Bear Foundation Scholarship will be awarded to a student in Williamson County whose family has been affected by cancer.
