In Loving Memory of Cindy Graham
Cindy Lee Graham died of an aggressive brain tumor in February of 2021, leaving behind a family of twin sons Dean and Darwin, her husband Thomas, along with additional family and friends. She courageously donated her tumor and other tissues in the hope to inspire others, and accelerate development of treatments and cures for glioblastoma.
Cindy’s gift helps drive research to give hope to others.
Cindy’s donation of her tissues and tumor provides priceless resources to advance research into glioblastoma, an aggressive cancer of the brain. Her donation provides new resources to help research efforts find treatments and cures, so other families may overcome this insidious challenge.
