It is my hope that this playground honors the strength of children and their families battling pediatric cancer and brings them pure fun and joy.” “Seeing this pass the Senate during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is something really special. It sends a message to every West Virginia family touched by childhood cancer that we see you, we stand with you, and we will always remember the courageous kids who have fought this terrible disease. My hope is that every laugh heard here and every memory made here brings a little more light into their lives. The brave West Virginia children we have named this playground after truly have hearts of gold,” Senator Justice said. # # # | 1 | 2026-09-25T10:04:52Z | 2026-09-25T10:05:46Z |
