We Relayed All Night Long!


We spent Friday night into the wee hours of Saturday morning honoring and remembering those who have suffered and suffer from Cancer. Relay for Life was a very humbling experience and I am so glad to have been a part of it. It was so special to see my mom walk the survivor lap and I definitely got teary eyed when I took a moment to remember those that didn't make it to the "survivor" stage. Just for a moment I want to pay tribute to those closest to me that I have lost due to this terrible disease.

Grandpa Hancock- Though I didn't know you for long, I have the fondest memories of you. You were an amazing father to my dad and I know that you had a lot to do with him being the incredible man that he is today. You were a loving grandpa and I will forever cherish the memories that I do have of you!

Grandma Hancock- This is the hardest one to type because I truly miss you every day! You were such a constant love and support in my life and I always felt like you were my biggest fan. You could make anyone feel like they were the most special person in the world. I love you so much and miss you always!

Uncle Gary- Your laughter and love is greatly missed at every Bryant family gathering. You were such a fun person filled with so much joy towards your family. I miss your happy spirit and smile!

Adam Seth- You were taken from this earth so quickly, but you made such an impact while you were here! Your faith and your love touched the hearts of so many. You were an amazing best friend to Chris and you will never be replaced. I am so glad that I got to become a part of your life and that I was able to call you a dear friend. We wish you were here to see Sawyer grow up. You would have loved him with all your heart! Miss you so much!!


We will keep "relaying" with the hopes and prayers that this list does not continue to grow. I want to say a special thanks to my mom for fighting hard and staying strong even when she feels like giving up. I will be forever thankful that your name is not on the list above. I love you with all my heart!



Thank you to all the faithful Team Hancock members who sacrificed their time, money, and sleep to make a difference for this worthy cause. You are all amazing! Above is the picture of the remaining team members Saturday morning. Wow, very impressive! Love you all so much!!!!
