Friends and Family:
As you know, Ann was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in 2017. It metastasized to her lungs, and she has undergone several surgeries, radiation, and chemotherapy treatments over the years. Sadly, during her quarterly scans and bloodwork analysis last week, we learned of another spot in her lungs and a new surprise discovering a spot in her spine/bone in the neck area.
Ann and I remain HOPEFUL even after learning of this most recent news and we are ready to do battle again! We are asking for your prayers as we face these new challenges knowing that God uses His people for His greater Good!
We will take our Cancer Curing Bicycles to the street again on Sunday, September 22nd in support of Pedal the Cause! Ann and I are extremely passionate about fundraising for Cancer research and Our Vision of a ‘World without Cancer’. It is through research that WE WILL NOT LET CANCER WIN!
It has been through your amazing generosity that we have raised more than $250,000 in the last 7 years to help fund cancer research. Our goal is to raise $50,000 + again this year and we need your help to get there! Remember 100% of contributions go towards research at Siteman Cancer Center and are matched on average 8 times by grants and other sources of funding for a total of more than $2M going towards Cancer research!

Words cannot begin to describe the endless love, prayers and support we have felt over the years through this unexpected battle. We are grateful and blessed to have you in our lives.
Thank you for your continued support and generosity! RAISE, RIDE, RESEARCH, REPEAT
Supporting the Fighters! Admiring the Survivors! Honoring the Taken and never ever giving up HOPE!
Brian and Ann Sullivan
We are dedicating our Ride this year to
Jeff Bauer, our Best Friend
who lost his battle to Cancer this Summer.
