Florida Gator Reggie Nelson loses mom to breast cancer

The Cancer Blog

Jan 11th 2007 10:56PM Reggie, congratulations on the great win over Ohio State! Our daughter, Lynn Brockwell-Carey, alerted us to look for you. Lynn is director of the Brevard Neighborhood Development Coalition (BNDC) in Melbourne and was a close friend and co-worker with your Mom's friend Ms. Irene Summerford. We miss Irene so much and are sorry for your loss of your Mom as well. When you are in Melbourne you might like to go to the Booker T. Washington neighborhood and see the DOCK (Dorcas Outreach Center for Kids) being built and scheduled for completion in March or April. Dorcas was Ms Irene's long time dream and was the name she chose for the center.

All the best in the NFL! We'll watch your progress with interest.
