A personal need in our community for support for family, friends, and neighbors affected by cancer prompted outdoor skiing enthusiast, Heather Gibson and her friend, local Nurse Practitioner Cynthia Dalsing, to create Community Cancer Services in 2002.
CCS is a non-profit, community-funded, cancer resource center providing current and reliable information and direct support services to cancer patients and their families residing in Bonner and Boundary Counties of North Idaho.
Heather passed away in August 2006 after an eight year battle with cancer. Her memory lives on in CCS and in the hearts of friends and family who knew her.
