Our February Executive Meeting was held at the Dr. H. Bliss Murphy Cancer Centre. It started with a tour of Dr. Kao’s laboratory, followed by a question & answer period. We thanked Dr. Kao for his recognition of the MRFD support in his press conference in January. This was followed with a check presentation for $46,675.00! WOW! Also present for this tour and presentation was Rick Daw, Vice Chair, Dr. H. Bliss Murphy Cancer Care Foundation. It was all very interesting, informative and exciting. We want to thank each and every one of you for your part in supporting the Motorcycle Ride for Dad.
