Most of you know who Heather Farr the LPGA star was. But,
we'd like to tell you a little bit about Heather Farr the Grayhawk Family
member. Heather was a long-time friend, and she was the very first of the
Grayhawk ambassadors. We loved her spirit and infectious enthusiasm. And,
we admired her integrity and courage. She had a heart of gold. But, she
was also tough. A real fighter when she had to be. And, she is an inspiration
to us all. We named our very first hole on Grayhawk's Talon Course "Farrview"
in her honor. A life sized bronze statue of Heather stands behind the tee
as a memorial.
The late Heather Farr was an outstanding junior golfer, an All-American player at Arizona State University and a rising star on the LPGA Tour. Yet it was during her four-and-a-half year fight with breast cancer that Heather's unique courage and spirit shown most brightly. Although, Heather ultimately lost her struggle, her family, friends and fans have chosen to continue her fight through the Heather Farr Foundation. The Heather Farr Foundation exists to hasten the eradication of breast cancer by supporting efforts aimed at detection, research and treatment of the disease at a local and national level. To register for the Heather Farr Memorial Golf Classic or to help us in our fight, call the Heather Farr Foundation at (602) 266-4122. |
