The luncheon and auction committee members

The Nancy Owens Breast Cancer Foundation’s annual luncheon and auction, featuring comedian Tig Notaro, is scheduled for October 2. Event planning committee members (pictured) are preparing to welcome supporters at the Hilton Americas Hotel for an afternoon of laughter to raise funds for breast-cancer research. Notaro, a breast-cancer survivor, is a Grammy Award winner for Best Comedy Album “Live” and has appeared in both television and movies including Transparent, Star Trek: Discovery, Army of the Dead, Instant Family, and Your Place or Mine. The Nancy Owens Breast Cancer Foundation, an entirely volunteer-run organization that supports local research and awareness initiatives, was established 22 years ago, inspired by breast-cancer survivor Nancy Owens. The luncheon and auction committee members are (top row, from left): Elizabeth Rankin-Rice, Mariella Massa, Vicky Fullerton; (second row, from left): Christina Sacco, Jennifer Hernandez, Gloria Moorman, Mary Piper; (third row, from left): Robin Mueck, Randee Kaplan, Ellie Riney, Tamara Mannen; (bottom row, from left): Amy Bernstein, Terri Guerra, and Peggie Kohnert.
