Remembering D’Marco
What a wonderful surprise at our office. Two teachers from Hermitage H.S. dropped off fleece blankets made by the classmates of our hero (now angel) D'Marco. D'Marco was the young man who inspired his classmates with his graduation speech made before he entered the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. It was there that he lost his battle against cancer. Before the end of the school year, his school counselors invited his buddy Savanna to talk to the students about her experience with cancer. Most touching was when she talked about the wonderful friendship that she and D'Marco shared. Thank you to counselors, Jaime Conklin and Renee Zando, and the students.
