Carla’s Legacy Lives On Through Research | Omaha News

This past Saturday, the 15th annual Carla Kilpatrick Memorial Bags Tournament returned with a powerful legacy—raising funds for triple negative breast cancer research at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Born from Carla’s tragic loss in 2011, the event now draws community-wide support and even inspired the NIH to boost funding in this critical area. This year marked a heartwarming milestone: the debut of a kids’ division, where Carla’s granddaughter Carly took second place. It’s more than a tournament—it’s a living tribute to Carla’s memory, fueled by hope, community, and the enduring message on the Carla Cup: “Pain is temporary, a cure will last forever.” Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
