Team Captain of Barbara's Bunch

Barbaras Bunch

I have been involved for years in this event and just cannot say no when the first email comes in March. The disease once again came close to our family when my sister, Barbara, was diagnosed; from an emotional perspective, it took my family and I to a whole new level of understanding. Several years back, while in remission, she swan on my relay team with others in the family as well. She always said that it was one of the great moments in her life, especially when hundreds of people march off the LI Ferry at 7 AM in Port Jefferson, to begin the swim; there is a tradition where a gentleman plays the bagpipes as we depart the boat and it really sets the tone for the day. SAS is a tremendous organization that channels donations directly to those in need that have been affected by this diease and has helped so many families over the years.
