Together we can.

In loving memory of Gary Lee Chevillar

From the age of 15 years old I saw my father go in and out of hospitals battling all of the obstacles that cancer had thrown his way. My father is my hero... His attitude and outlook on what he was going through was always optimistic and no one from the outside world ever know all that he went through.

I will never forget the socked feet peeping out of the end of every hospital bed.. from the ICU unit, to surgical recovery and the everyday room. It was the same heart wrenching feeling no matter which room he was in and always the same socks providing him some sort of comfort during his stays. Every time my father would come home from the hospital he would have a new pair of socks and I would ask him for them... I still have these socks to this day. 

Tanyon and I discussed if we could give back who would we focus on?... Anyone that knows me,  knows the impact my father has made on me, my family and so many others. We wanted to honor him while providing some comfort to children.
