I have so many fond memories of growing up in a large family. But nothing compares to my Nana and her apple pies. Nana Doris was the matriarch of our family. She had ten children and her front door was always open. She was an extremely special person and cancer took her from us when I was only 12 years old. So when I got the chance to raise money to help knock out cancer, I jumped at the chance.
