IN REMEMBRANCE OF THOSE WE HAVE LOST IN THIS “DRUG WAR”…
Michelle Rainey
After a brave fight, Michelle succumbed to cancer on October 20, 2010. Her passion, strength and courage inspired so many people, and she will never be forgotten.
Her husband Jef, is continuing the work, so the Medicinal Cannabis Education Package and Medicinal T-Shirts are still available.
In her honour, a non profit will be established, the Michelle Rainey Foundation: Continuing Crohn’s, Cancer and Cannabis Research.
