For the 9th year in a row, my cousin BJ and I are swimming to honor the memory of Dolores “Dee” Hendrix, BJ’s grandmother and my beloved cousin, who lived in Trumansburg, New York, for 67 years; who was a community leader and a familiar, friendly face on Main Street; and who died as peacefully and comfortably as possible—and with her usual great grace—on January 4, 2010, after a 10-day stay at the Hospicare residence.

After the tremendous spirit BJ and I experienced at the 2010 swim, we were so inspired that we agreed to make this fundraiser an annual event, swimming as proud, thankful members of Team Dee.

Thank you for your donation!
