CONGRATULATED by his biggest fans at the finish line of the 2000 Boston Marathon. Annually Dr. Peter runs this race to raise funds to research for a cure of the cancer that has affected his brother Jed and 7 other family members. His Team in Training has raised over $10 million since being formed 10 years ago. Jed's own oncologist Dr Andy Zelenetz is big fund raiser on the bicycle racing branch of the same team. The annual plea for contributions will appear in the next two issues but please contact Peter now if you would care to make a donation in the 2003 tax year.
