Gene Mathis

Gene Mathis

Gene Mathis was a very loving & compassionate man who was very well respected by everyone lucky enough to know him! He lost his courageous battle to lung cancer in 2022, breaking the hearts of the many family & friends who loved him dearly! He is always in our thoughts, prayers & in our hearts! We have to beat this war against cancer so that no one, child or adult has to suffer & we don’t have to lose another person to this horrible disease! We truly miss you Gene💔

My Story

30 Jun 2026

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Ellen
