Remembering Peggy Morgen

I lost someone special on September 2, 2008.  Her name was Peggy Morgen and she died after a courageous battle with cancer.  She was only 52 years old. I had the pleasure of meeting Peggy about a year ago.  I was attending a funeral and she came up to me after the service and asked if I was the “Pink Scarf Lady.”  I told her that I was and she asked if she could receive a scarf because she was battling cancer.  We visited for a while and I told her a scarf would be in the mail the very next day.  She sent me the most beautiful card and she couldn’t believe that a complete “stranger” cared so much for women who were battling cancer. I will always remember Peggy’s smile – it was contagious! Peggy, you will be missed.

Remembering Anna Hohbein

On August 17, 2008 I lost a special friend, Anna Hohbein.  She was 72 and was the second recipient of a pink wrap, which she received on May 5, 2007. 

Anna was featured inThe Bismarck Tribune where she shared her story about battling inflammatory ductal carcinomna, a rare form of breast cancer.  Anna was always upbeat and appreciated her life. “I know life could end tomorrow, so I appreciate today,” she said. 

I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet you. 

Anna, you will be missed.
