🔒St. Francis honors cancer survivors with special celebration

The Smilow Cancer Hospital Yale-New Haven at St. Francis recently held a celebration for more than 150 cancer patients, representing more than 500 years of survivorship. At the event, patients dipped their hands in paint and added their handprints to a “Closer to Free” mural painted by Cheshire artist Tony Falcone. Pictured is Barbara Gordon, a St. Francis corporator, cancer survivor and West Hartford resident, adding her handprint to the mural.
