Susan G. Komen for the Cure fundraiser at Ramona Beauty Supply and Salon

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. On Friday September 23 evening, we joined 4 other wineries in Ramona to pour wines at the local Ramona Beauty Supply and Salon’s 4th annual breast cancer fundraiser. The support from the local folks for this event was overwhelming. The place was packed with women and men of all ages. I am so glad it turned out well for Vikki Dancan, Chelsie Gammill, Dani Norman and Teresa Craig Hanvey. This event was bittersweet for me as I lost a dear friend, Sandy Manley, who passed away in 2006 after a brave fight against breast cancer. She was an inspiration for her faith in God and love for her family. She was one of those good and kind-hearted people that I was fortunate enough to come across. I still miss her and wish that she were still with us. The memory of our friendship comforts me when life gets tough as I know she still watches over all of us and her gentle spirit guides us in our daily activities.
