suffered from breast cancer.

“It’s really a cause I want to fight for,” she said. “I definitely learned that people are willing to help and chip in when it’s a good cause. It really felt like it was a great experience. Everybody was excited.”

Dr. Mabry said breast cancer touches so many people – one in eight women in the United States will get it.

“It’s so common but it can be cured with proper and timely treatment. I would say there is a very effective treatment. If you take everyone with breast cancer, there is an 85-percent cure rate overall. It’s constantly improving. The treatments are improving.”

Mabry said she was proud of the teams that came together for a cause.

“Isn’t this amazing?” she said. “I’m so touched. I can’t even believe it. I’m so happy. We have patients coming in all the time with breast cancer. It can happen to anyone. You can do everything right and still get it or do everything wrong and not get it. We know the risk factors. You see people getting it that you don’t expect to have it never just a trivial thing. It’s always a wonderful and important thing to do.

You see people stepping outside of their own problems to help somebody and you see people who live and never get it. The element of it is so random. It makes it more frightening and unpredictable.

“Acts of generosity are things that make our community stronger,” she said. “We see a lot of it here, but it’s else. It makes a wonderful community.”

Roosevelt’s Olson said she and her teammates were “honestly really excited” when Anderson chose them to play in the game.

“Win or lose, everybody wins,” she said.

Have you ever had a question about your vacuum cleaner or carpet shampooer? Of course, you can always look online for help, but it’s generally better to have someone – a professional – to speak with.

If you ever find yourself in that situation, simply head over to B & D Vacuum in either Southgate or Trenton and the dedicated, experienced staff there can help you with any problem or question.

When it comes to knowledge about all things vacuum, there is no better place than B & D.

Owner Matt LeFervre is the rookie of the shop with “only” 29 years of experience. His time in the business is dwarfed by manager of the stores, Ron Vaughan (39 years), business manager Linda Mullins (39 years), salesman David Archer (39 years) and repairman Brian Knapp (36 years).

Vaughan has been with B & D for 39 years, but he has been in the vacuum business for nearly five decades. He is the shop’s “Mr. Fix-it” and the go-to person in the shop.

When Mullins is not looking after her rescue dog Ralphie, she is handling the billing, the paperwork and the other business needs for the stores.

Archer, who has used one sick day in 39 years, is a drummer, a grandfather and takes pride in being one of the forward-looking faces of B & D Vacuum.

Knapp will make a sale when the stores get busy, but most of the time he is a behind-the-scenes kind of guy, content to be the main repair man for the stores.

They are an amazing staff, with years of experience that they are willing to share. Whether you have a broken machine, need a new one or are just looking for advice, come on in. Matt, Ron, Linda, David and Brian will be happy to help, and we will do flips for your business, just like our ad!
