Suzanne Giroux, co-author of A Chance for Life: The Suzanne Giroux Story, was born on October 3, 1967 in the town of Cornwall. Her lifelong battles with cancer led her to discover her true calling: to help people with the same disease. She worked as a motivational speaker for National Speaker Bureau, and talked at banquets about her fight. Sadly, Sue lost her battle with cancer in the spring of 2001.
