Turner Barker is proud to join The American Cancer Society in marking the 37th Great American Smokeout. This takes place on November 15 and we encourage smokers to use that date to make a plan to quit, or to plan in advance and quit smoking that day.
Please share the attached document with friends, family and co-workers. Quitting smoking, even just for one day, is an important step to leading a healthier life! Tobacco is the single largest preventable cause of disease and premature death in the USA. Help yourself, or someone you know, quit and begin a path to a healthier life!

It seems that all of us know someone who has had breast cancer - a neighbor, a friend, a mother or a sister. And it's no wonder. About one in eight women in the U.S. will develop invasive breast cancer in her lifetime. Not only that, it's the second most common cancer found in U.S. women. In addition, though breast cancer is found overwhelmingly in women, men can develop it too. In the United States, that ratio is one man to every 100 women who are diagnosed.
In the attached document, we have put together some reliable facts and resources that we hope are helpful to you and that you can pass it on!

Best wishes for a wonderful fall season!
