June 2007 – Leavealetter.com director, Jill Green, and her daughter, Naomi, put their best foot forward to raise money for breast cancer when they ran the Guildford leg of the Race for Life on Sunday 10 June 2007.
Jill and Naomi will be remembering and showing their support for loved ones they have lost and who are battling with cancer in their community.
Cancer has touched the lives of both leavealetter.com’s founders, Jill Green lost her father to cancer and Angie Mills lost her husband. The impact of their losses inspired the best friends to create the unique internet-based support service, leavealetter.com.
"Jill Green, director of leavealetter.com, said: "We have raised over £215 to date for Race For Life. The race is a fun way of celebrating life and the fact that we are well and able to do this in memory of those who cannot or have lost their battle with this dreadful disease."
"My daughter Naomi and I are running Race for Life in memory of my father, Naomi’s grandfather, Angie’s husband Phil, who is also Naomi’s godfather, and a long time friend, Brooke, who passed away to breast cancer at a very young age."
www.leavealetter.com.com is a Surrey based company that enables people to put into writing those thoughts and emotions that they might not have had the opportunity to express in letters to be sent to their loved ones at the time of their death.
By registering at www.leavealetter.com, subscribers can log in and write letters which are safely stored electronically and can be updated at the letter-writer’s discretion. They are then sent to the recipients by leavealetter.com upon the subscribers’ death. Letters are kept privately and the service spares loved ones the painful process of searching for that personal letter and possibly never finding it.
Leavealetter.com supports the Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice in Farnham where Angie’s husband was cared for before he passed away and the Michael Sobell House in Watford where Jill’s father was cared for.
