On January 5, Michael and Ashlee Cramer joined RPV for an inspiring talk during our virtual company retreat. A bit of background: Michael Cramer is a 22-year-old cancer survivor, bone marrow transplant recipient, social media influencer, and motivational hero. He was a surfer, skater, on the Olympic Development team for windsurfing. Ashlee Cramer (mom) was a dancer turned early childhood educator turned cancer caregiver. In 2014 her husband was diagnosed with Large B Cell Lymphoma. She became the sole source of income, the caregiver for her husband, as well as mom and dad to their three children. Tragically, he died in 2016, but this only brought the family closer. July 14, 2020, heartbreak hit again. Michael was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer, Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma.
As part of their presentation, Michael and Ashlee gathered some input from the RPV team and came up with a fun rap about our company. We are so thankful for their advocacy, the time they shared with us, and for this happy rap.
