It is with heavy hearts we share the tragic and sudden passing of one of our board members, George Searfoss. George was Crush Childhood Cancer's biggest advocate and one of the reasons it ever came into existence. He was a crucial part of ensuring our mission stayed the heart of our organization. George modeled what it looked like to never let our Crush families fight alone, and we are committed to finishing strong like he taught us to do.

A Crush Childhood Cancer Update 💛

08/08/2024

9 years missing this boy 💛

Julian Thomas Ross came into this world on May 14, 2005 and was called home on August 8, 2015 at 3:30AM. I could say a lot about Julian because he was a beautiful wise old soul, but instead share a story please how Julian touched yours. We (Kristi Thompson and Steve Ross) were blessed to be his parents and know we could never have asked for anything better in this life. Julian is my best friend and hero. Everyday is going to be hard and while you're not with me physically you live forever inside of me and everyone you touched. I've never hurt as much as I do today but my pain is nothing compared to the four year battle you courageous fought and won. Julian cancer may have taken you physical body but it could never touch you. You live in the hearts and memories of all you've touched. While Julian isn't here to ask this, I know he would have wanted everyone to get involved - don't let this happen to another child and family. Our children are worth more than the 4% share of cancer research dollars. Please get involved, make a change. Julian wanted this "bad army" never to affect another so please help him fulfill this one open item on his bucket list. Even in death couldn't stop his involvement - all Julian's blood and tumor tissues were donated to the Neuroblastoma Lab here at Children's Hospital Of Philadelphia.

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I've found that peace at the close of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My Life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch,

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

Thank you all for following, praying, caring, supporting, and most of all loving Julian. We will keep this page going to help share our story with others who are newly diagnosed and to keep you all up on how Julian lives on in our lives.
