On September 9, 2007 Henry and Molly Simon participated in the Hudson River Swim for Life, a three-plus mile swim across the Hudson River in New York,  in memory of their father who passed away from kidney cancer in April.  The brother and sister team raised over $4000 for kidney cancer. 

According to Henry and Molly, " While it seemed endless when we were in the middle of the Hudson, the sun was shining, the water temperature was perfect, the river was calm and we made it across in less than two hours.  Even more unbelievable, we managed to stay close throughout the swim, ending together and creating a much eaier photo opportunity for mom"   While the event may have been exhausting, it was even more rewarding.  The Kidney Cancer Association would like to thank Henry and Molly and all their supporters in their effort to help us end the pain and suffering caused by this disease.
