The Garrett Staples Osteosarcoma Research Fund
Established In Loving Memory of a Remarkable Young Man

Anyone that knew Garrett Staples will tell you about his smile. They may also tell you about his love for fishing and boating, that he was a great student, a wonderful friend, and an inspiration to everyone around him. Garrett was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma at the age of nine and battled the disease with his infamous smile and strong spirit for five years.

With heavy hearts, family and friends said goodbye to Garrett Staples on January 11th of 2005. He was only 13 years old. In honor of Garrett’s courage and strength, his family has established the Garrett Staples Osteosarcoma Research Fund in conjunction with the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. The dollars raised through this Fund will be directed toward the Foundation’s newest initiative, The Sunshine Project, which focuses its research on sarcomas.
