One of the first people I found when I was diagnosed, and gave me hope. Sad she's gone but so glad she LIVED.

A tireless and dedicated advocate for early breast cancer detection and savings lives of women. Truly saddened this champion of such a great cause has lost her battle. Her hard work will live on. Prayers and condolences to the Hallenga family and friends. So very sorry for your loss. May you all be comforted and strengthen by God in your time of loss.
