On Christmas Eve 2002 we lost our mom, Marie Gable, to pancreatic cancer. We knew we could not sit back and let this disease devastate other families! Initially, we started by participating in PurpleStride events in our area.

Then, one day, we decided to start hosting a bike ride, in hopes of drawing in participants who love biking and share our passion in fighting this disease!

Our hope is that this event will both educate in understanding more about Pancreatic Cancer, and also inspire others to take action in support of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. The ultimate goal is to eradicate this disease from our planet.

With your support, we’re taking bold action to improve the lives of everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer.

Every dollar you give funds lifechanging programs and services for patients and their families. That means more patients can benefit from PanCAN’s free, one-to-one support and personalized information – resources that can make a real difference in their lives. 

We are grateful for your generous support.

With love and gratitude 

The family of Marie Gable
