This seventh annual event started as a tribute to Kathy Maxwell, who lost her battle to sarcoma cancer on Dec. 14, 2012. When the cancer reached her spine, her family reached out to Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center, whose staff managed her pain and gave her another year with her husband, daughter and grandchildren. Run FORE Cancer has raised more than 287,000 for St. Joe's.
