Diana’s Dreamers: Determined to Defeat Breast Cancer Established in honor of Diana Denenberg Durand, this endowment has been set up through the Millersville University Foundation to fund a national campaign to raise awareness among college-age women and men about breast cancer and breast health in general. www.millersville.edu/nursing/ breast-cancer-awareness-program/ dianas-dreamers.php

vehicles may seem like a lot to examine in several hours, that number is half as many as are typically exhibited in the show. “It was cold and windy,” membership chair Tom Henman recalled of last year’s event. See American Legends Show pg 4

She taught first-grade in the Washington, D.C., area and married the love of her life, John Ralston, in 2013.
