His father Russ, now in his fourth year as a cancer survivor, would join his mother Karen and fly down from New Jersey for the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life of Estero/Bonita Springs on April 4 at Bonita Springs High School. He also had friends flying in from Massachusetts and California. The coronavirus changed all of that.

So now he’s inviting the world to fly down and join him -- virtually.(Read more)https://www.facebook.com/notes/american-cancer-society-florida/relay-for-life-bonita-springsestero-bounces-back-with-virtual-5k-event/2648630495356286/
