As a native of Spencer, and as current volunteer chair of Iowa's Leadership Council of the American Cancer Society, I was pleased to see your coverage of the Spencer Relay for Life. Cancer never rests. Those of us volunteering in fighting it cannot let up, either. Thank you to those who volunteered and contributed to the cause.
