Please join me in supporting Roswell Park in memory of my grandfather, John Patrick McTigue Sr., who recently lost his courageous battle with cancer.
In his final days, my grandpa was cared for by the incredible teams at Roswell, who treated him with respect, kindness, patience, and grace. Our family found great comfort in knowing he was in their care, and we would like to give back in his honor.
In lieu of sending flowers or making funeral donations for his upcoming service, our family has kindly requested contributions to support Roswell Park in their mission of working towards a world without cancer.

Contributions can be made directly on my individual fundraising page or on the pages of my teammates. While online donations must be directed to an individual within the team, please note that all contributions are being gathered as a collective fund on behalf of his entire family and loved ones.
If you would prefer to send a check, please ensure that "John Patrick McTigue Sr. Memorial Fund" is included in the memo line to have your donation directed to this team. Checks can be mailed to the following address:
Roswell Park Alliance Foundation
P.O. Box 644

Anyone is welcome and invited to join the team as a rider and support our fundraising efforts. Thank you in advance to all who contribute - it means the world.

The Ride for Roswell is so important to the Western New York community. We all care about making a difference in the future of cancer research and bringing an end to this devastating disease. That is why we are riding in the 2024 Ride for Roswell on June 22.
We need your help to raise critically needed funds to support the thousands of patients that turn to Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center each year.
For every dollar donated to cancer research, Roswell Park is now able to leverage an additional $23 from external grants towards that research.
Together – we can end cancer!
