Advocate to be honored during annual breast cancer walk

Shernita Lockhart will commemorate her mother’s legacy alongside fellow breast cancer survivors with a memorial walk in Dadeville this Saturday, Oct. 8. This is likely to be among the largest walks in Dadeville focused on cancer awareness since The Norma Livingston Ovarian Cancer Foundation Mother Walk took place  last year, shown above. 

Dadeville residents will pay tribute this weekend to a local that dedicated her life to helping save lives. 

Pink Out the Finale Walk will celebrate the memory of Clara “Jan” Cox Pearson, who championed breast cancer awareness throughout Tallapoosa County and Alabama for over 20 years.
