  1. Steve Fonyo was human. He sometimes did the right things and other times he did not.

    But over all, Steve raised a lot of money for cancer research.

    1. @marty trueblood Just not as smart as Rick Hansen. He should have setup a foundation under his name with all the money, keep a clean public image, beg for more money, and milk it for life.
