Breast Cancer Awareness Month re-minds us to be a good neighbor, friend

Editorial - The calendar has turned over to October, which means this month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Even in smaller communities such as ours, breast cancer and cancer as a whole has touched virtually everyone’s lives. Some of us have battled it ourselves while most of the rest of us have friends, family and neighbors who have. It does not discriminate who it affects.

Throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we see pink ribbons on our televisions and in our communities but the ability to make an impact through the month extends beyond a color.
