MONROE – From one little Penny, came thousands of dollars for children with cancer.
On Tuesday former New York Giants star quarterback Eli Manning played the role of receiver, accepting $10,000 on behalf of Tackle Kids Cancer (TKC). A posthumous wish-granting at the Make-A-Wish New Jersey headquarters, the donation was in honor of 2 1/2-year-old Penelope Lindsay of Garfield.
Known as Penny, the bright and bubbly toddler was diagnosed with stage 4 high-risk neuroblastoma last summer after an emergency room visit for an unexplained swollen black eye. After a courageous eight-month battle, Penny lost her life to the childhood cancer in February. She was perfect, said Penny s parents, Cassandra Izquierdo and Jack Lindsay, in unison.
