There was little time for organization between Anna Daley’s death on May 8 and the 2012 Relay for Life of Kane County, scheduled for June 22 and 23 at Fifth Third Bank Ballpark in Geneva,

But even with Daley’s family and friends reeling from the loss of the popular St. Charles East junior, Jordan Griffin and Alex O’Brien knew something ought to be done – quickly.

One dizzying month later, “Anna’s Allies” – the Relay for Life team Griffin and O’Brien launched in Daley’s honor – is the top team for the cancer-fighting fundraiser.
