Gold ribbons are up in honor of Patrick Chance

Thanks to all the neighbors that helped make the gold ribbons to honor Patrick Chance and his battle with childhood cancer (Neuroblastoma). Patrick will be honored and remembered  by hundreds (and probably in upwards of 2,000) friends and family tomorrow afternoon.  Druid Hills will be covered in gold bows - gold being the color representing the fight against childhood cancer- in honor  of Patrick and how he and his family  "pressed on" and lived life fully for 5+ years  in spite of the forbidding diagnosis.

I was so pleased to see how many neighbors offered their support! Here is a picture of our gathering and also want to thank Paul Murdoch for his assistance in putting up the gold ribbons this afternoon.
