Colorectal Cancer - Education, Awareness, Support

Gregory (Greg) John Liptak

Greg, an outstanding athlete all his life –baseball, basketball and football player, skier, heli-skier, surfer– lost a courageous battle to colorectal cancer at age 37.

This cancer takes more lives each year, from both men and women, than breast cancer and AIDS combined. Greg's Cancer Foundation is presented by his family, friends, and acquaintances to help alert young people to the scourge of this disease.

If it is caught early lives can be saved. Please read this material, particularly the "Warning Signs" section and be sure to pass it along to friends and loved ones.
