Discovery Ball 2018 - Indianapolis, IN


Ten days ago, I flew back to Indiana to attend a fundraising gala sponsored by The American Cancer Society Indiana.

It was called Indianapolis Discovery Ball.


My brother sits on the board, so he purchased a table-for-ten, and filled it with my siblings, a niece, his
wife, her daughter, and his daughter.


All of us dressed to the nines and had a BLAST!!!


My brother, younger sister and I made sure to get a photograph together, because in our youth, the three of us were practically inseparable. Especially those two!


We ate, drank, laughed, talked, had winning bids on auction items, and even had a chance to reconnect with Mr. Holbrook Hankinson, an Indianapolis business leader who ran the Center For Leadership Development program when I was a teenager.

I heard our table was the first all-black table ever at this event. Hmm. Well, my brother said we'll be back next year; so Indy, get ready!!!!!!!

My family lost our beloved eldest sister, Deb, to breast cancer in 1990. So, standing up to the wicked disease, and speaking up for those affected by it, will ALWAYS be one of our passions!


Until next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
