Susan G. Komen for the Cure-Central Valley Today's Annual Celebration of Life Survivor Luncheon was a
great success! TorNino’s was transformed from a banquet hall into a sea
of Komen pink. Dark pink and light pink adorned the table dressings with
beautiful pink flower arrangements. I recognized the faces of many
survivor sisters and was delighted to see many newcomers.
