Team Slizik for Graco's Breath Of Life Stroll: Remember Samantha Ann

July 1, 2010

In 2005, Dana Ann and Rob Slizik of Scott Township had a beautiful baby girl named Samantha Ann. Samantha Ann was Stillborn. For the past three years, Dana Ann and Rob along with their Sons RJ and Daniel have been volunteering/raising funds for SIDS of PA/Cribs for Kids.  "Grief counseling was what our family needed the most at that tragic time, and  SIDS of PA and Eileen Carlins  helped us and is still helping us today!" Dana Ann stated. " SIDS/Cribs for Kids wants to teach prevention, education and awareness and all aspects of safe sleep practices.
