No Frills Fun Run - Year 5

Daryl May

Daryl May was an Elmhurst resident who had battled Multiple Myeloma (bone marrow cancer) for several years. He was a one-time cancer survivor having beat testicular cancer 14 years prior and joyfully celebrated five-years cancer free in 2006 by qualifying for and running the Boston Marathon. In 2009 the multiple myeloma diagnosis surfaced. At the time of his nomination, Daryl was undergoing re-staging following his third (and first donor) stem cell transplant, triple-organ failure and graft versus host cell rejection issues.

Update - Daryl lost his battle with cancer January 25th 2017 peacefully, surrounded by loved ones.
