A Dinner Dance to Celebrate National Cancer Survivors Day
and Honor Nancy Moncrief
HOUSTON, TEXAS
Survivors (CancerForward) will present The New Summer
Standard 2012 on Wednesday, May 23 at 7:00 pm at Houston
Country Club. The black tie dinner dance will celebrate
National Cancer Survivors Day 2012 and honor three-time
cancer survivor Nancy Moncrief of Houston, who was first
diagnosed with cancer at age 12. Four years ago, this mother
of four young adult sons lost her husband,
oilman Lee P. Moncrief, at age 57 to esophageal cancer.
Extending the elegance of CancerForward's highly successful
2011 celebration of National Cancer Survivors Day, 2012 gala
chairs
Lisa and Mike O'Leary and Liz and Robert Rigney promise a
chic, early-summer party inspired by Dorothy Draper's
colorful and iconic East Hamptons interiors-- replete with
dinner and dancing to the Richard Brown Orchestra. The
inaugural chairs of The New Summer
Standard- Betty and Stephen Newton, Cabrina and Steven
Owsley and Phoebe and Bobby Tudor- serve as Honorary Chairs
of the
2012 event.
All proceeds from the evening will underwrite the ongoing
virtual programs provided by CancerForward through its
unique website, which includes The Survivor Network unded
last year by The
Dan L. Duncan Family. Individual seats are available at $500
and tables, seating 10, begin at $5,000.
For more information on the luncheon, to reserve seats or a
table, please contact Lee Honeycutt at 713/840-0988 ext. 04

About CancerForward:
CancerForward: The Foundation For Cancer Survivors
www.cancerforward.org
is a free and unique web-based networking and educational
resource for cancer survivors of all ages and all types of
cancers. By design, CancerForward embraces the now
conventional definition of "survivors," thus serving those
living with, through and beyond cancer diagnosis, along with
family members, friends and caregivers.
The Survivor Network on CancerForward, funded by the
Dan L. Duncan Family, is an online platform that provides
survivors and caregivers virtual support groups in which to
share experiential information about disease-specific issues
as well as health,
wellness and practical living issues. The Foundation's
nonprofit mission is to connect, educate and share
information among cancer survivors, empowering them to move
forward with their lives.
