LETTER: We need a day for Jeneece

Jeneece Edroff should be a role model for us all – no question

Terry Fox Day? Fox is ancient history.  Let’s have a special day to honour someone more current and definitely worthy of a special day.

I am definitely not talking about Stephen Harper, Christy Clark or John Horgan. I am talking about someone local who has been doing something good for society for approximately two-thirds of her life now.

I am referring to Jeneece Edroff. She was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis at age three and chose to give back at age seven with a simple penny drive that has raised over $1 million.

Jeneece should be a role model for us all, so let us have a Jeneece Edroff day.
