RED ROSES OF COURAGE$20
Red roses endure as one of the simplest ways to say “I love you”
to someone special. It is said they are also a symbol of love being
stronger than thorns. The 2015 Cattle Baron’s Ball will celebrate
and honor those courageous fighters, survivors, loved ones who have
lost their battle, and caregivers with our “Red Roses of Courage.”
