A Special New Year’s Day
April 5, 2008 by Tara Lacher
I woke up on New Year’s Day and went to get my newspaper. I thought it was going to be just like any other day. When I opened the paper, my picture appeared on the front page and I read that I was one of four recipients that had been awarded the 2007 Tribune Award by the local newspaper. This award is given to indviduals or groups who represent the best of us all.
Here are the links to the articles:

My brother, Jay Hodny, was mentioned in the article. He said "that his sister always has been a very generous person and that she is determined to cover the U.S. in pink scarves. Her efforts are bent toward bringing a measure of comfort into cancer patients’ lives."
You should also know that Jay is also one of my biggest supporters!



My sister passed away 7 yrs ago from breast cancer. She has 3 boys. They were 20,16,13. Oldest and youngest are married now. Pink is a very important color to all of us. I would love to help you in any way possible. I live in Wattsburg, PA. Near Eire Pa. PLEASE let me know what I can do. We can knitt, find, send, we can do ANYTHING to help this wonderful program. Thank you!!!!
