Hungry For Life
This blog has been established for those of you who love and care about my brother, Dennis M. Rich. Dennis battled sarcoma for over two years. His strength and courage is truly inspiring. This is a piece of his story.

What a Day!
It was another great WALK day. Thanks to everyone who participated, donated and supported my family. A very special thanks to Jason Maxwell, MassPay and Fed Up With Cancer for uniting with us and for arranging an amazing bagpipe player and awesome after-party. Unbelievable! I know Dennis is giving us a thumbs up right now. Forever in our hearts...

Ready to Walk
Hello everyone,
I just want to share some last minute details. The WALK is about a week away.
We are meeting at the usual spot at 7:30 am. Bagpipes will be sending us off.
A HUGE thank you to Fed Up With Cancer, who has reserved the Knights of Columbus Ballroom from 10am - 2pm. The ballroom is upstairs from the room we are usually in.Supino’s will donate pizza and calzones and Super Sub will donate wraps and salad. A cash bar will be available. They will be selling $1 raffle tickets for prizes as well.
Please sport Team HFL t-shirts from previous years...anything goes. We look forward to seeing you all. If you have any questions, let me know.

Hi Everyone,
We are going to be meeting at 7:00am this year at our usual spot. Look for blue Hungry For Life shirts.
Immediately following the WALK we will be attending the Fed Up With Cancer/Hungry For Life after-party at the Knights of Columbus in Salem (the same place we have had it in the past) ~ except the party is upstairs this year in the larger room (not in the basement).

Only about three weeks until WALK time. Hope to see you there!

WALK 2011 ...It's Coming Soon!
Hello Everyone,
It's almost June and as usual, Team Hungry For Life will be participating in the annual NSMC Cancer WALK/Run.
Team Hungry For Life is very excited to announce that we are joining forces with team "Fed Up With Cancer" this year. Fed Up With Cancer (www.fedupwithcancer.com) was established by my brother-in-law, Jay Maxwell. It is a charitable organization that supports cancer fundraisers specifically on the North Shore.
We will proudly walk in memory of my brother, Dennis M. Rich, Jr.~ Dennis is always on my mind and in my heart, and I know he is so proud of what Team Hungry For Life has accomplished in the past several years. I am walking because I am truly fed up with cancer~ and I hope you will join us. Let's do something about it together.
TO JOIN HUNGRY FOR LIFE'S TEAM, click here.
If you want to donate, pick a team member's name in the right column. Please consider donating to this cause. Better yet, join Team Hungry For Life and Fed Up With Cancer and walk with us on June 26th. Remember, the WALK this year is not on Father's Day.
Just a note~ At this time, we are unsure of after-party info. and also not quite sure about t-shirts. There's a good chance we will be recycling past Team HFL shirts. I will be updating this site more regularly from now until the WALK next month.
Many thanks for your support! Keep in touch.
