Carolena Flint, one of our generous lion sponsors, died on August 6, 2009 after a truly courageous battle with cancer. Carolena was one of the first to embrace the Ryan's Lion™ cause, and donated generously to provide lions to others. If you are lucky enough to be a recipient of a lion with the name "Carolena" embroidered on the collar, you are holding a tangible piece of her effort to lift and comfort others, even in the midst of her own suffering. Click "Read More" to discover why Carolena's favorite quote was, "Life is all about what you do with Plan B."
