| The Miller "Cheerleaders" |
Trish and Howard Miller are running the Marine Corps Marathon to
honor both their moms, Maureen and Mary Anne, who passed away from multiple
myeloma. “During their respective battles with multiple myeloma, Maureen and
Mary Anne showed tremendous courage, a pervading sense of optimism, and
incredible dignity,” says Trish. “Our hope is to continue that legacy.” Their
four young children remember their grandmothers, and they understand the
significance of their parents’ run. “We have sort of become a 'running family'
and the kids are great cheerleaders!” Trish and Howard both ran the NYC
Marathon last fall for the MMRF, which fell on the anniversary of Trish's mom’s
death. The Millers will continue the tradition of running for their mom’s in
the years to come. Trish says, “I plan to sign up for 1 MMRF endurance event a
year to raise money for them until I am too old, or a cure is found- whichever
comes first!”
