Stafford works with cancer patients
When I met current Orlando Predators QB Shane Stafford a few years ago, he was still with the Storm. We ate lunch that day and talked about everything from the AFL to his days in college. I came away thinking that he was a pretty good dude.
Now, I'm sure of it.
In Tuesday's Orlando Sentinel, the paper chronicles Stafford's work with cancer patients. In the article, it says "Long before he became the mature quarterback of the Orlando Predators, Stafford was an easygoing Pennsylvania high school student. His world changed when his best friend, Paul Worcheck, was found to have leukemia at age 19. Worcheck died a year later while Stafford was attending a basketball camp the summer before his senior year."
Since that time, Stafford has given to those who are sick. According to the piece, he "has spent hundreds of hours during the past three years volunteering with the Children's Cancer Center, a nonprofit group in Tampa that offers support to cancer patients and their family members."
