Prayer Warriors,

2024 presented its challenges, yet it also brought growth—emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically. As we welcome 2025, we do so with a deep appreciation for Vicki, who was a beloved wife, mother, Oma, sister, daughter, aunt, "bestie", friend, neighbor, coworker, and a fervent prayer warrior. She inspired and touched many, and we are hopeful to see how you will carry on her legacy.

In remembering Vicki, let's also commit to fighting the terrible disease that took her from us. The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network remains a vital ally for patients, caregivers, researchers, doctors, and hospitals. Despite the survival rate holding at 13% since 2023, we must act now, especially as federal funding shifts and research support is at risk.

The Lepper/Mixer Family is so grateful for your love and support with your time and resources. Over the last 3 years, YOU raised nearly $50,000. Our Team, Vicki's Prayer Warriors, has been in the top 5 of the Indianapolis PurpleStride both of those years. Please consider joining us to keep up the good work and momentum for 2024 by:

• ​Praying for patients and their families & friends
• Beginning/continuing your financial support for a cure
• Joining us on April 26th in Indianapolis (come for lunch too!) or at your local PurpleStride
