No Stomach For Cancer, Inc. was created in honor of those we love who have faced stomach cancer, toward our goals of increasing awareness and supporting research. EVERY SINGLE STORY is important to our purposes. We honor you all.
We remember . . .
Tyler M. Slak, of Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin (July 11, 1987 - February 11, 2010)
Tyler Slak: SlakStrong
Tyler Slak was many things; quitter was not one of them. Tyler never gave up as he battled stomach cancer, and neither will we. We honor and we remember Tyler as we continue to fight against stomach cancer, the silent and deadly disease that, tragically, took the life of this wonderful young man.
Read more about Tyler, and about the Fort Atkinson Blackhawk Swim Invitational event held on December 11, 2010 dedicated to honor and remember Tyler, and to raise money for stomach cancer research.
As Coach Rumppe and the swim team family say, “Tyler’s spirit will be with us always!”
