I wanted to share with you another glimpse inside of just how remarkable and wonderful our honoree Tressa was always thinking of others even during her most difficult times. This one poignant example gives you an idea: When she started losing her hair after chemo she asked the nurse just to shave it off so she didn't have to watch it fall out and she could donate it. Tressa had a friend take her hair to a salon and donate it for her. A couple of days later a lady called to thank Tressa because her hair had been used to make a wig for that lady's eight year old daughter who also had cancer.
What a shining example she is to us all...in a dark very difficult time she wanted to do for others and make a difference and she did. She was selfless and understood what it meant to Pay it Forward and how in the end the tragic time of losing hair was turned into a positive and made her feel absolutely amazing.
And now it is our turn to do that in her memory for others...Pay it Foward and allow any day to become that much brighter.
