Melissa Bassett was only 18 years old when Cystic Fibrosis took her life.

She was a joy to be around and positive about life. She was active in Music, Art and Drama. She was an avid animal lover.

She was being evaluated for a lung transplant but her body couldn’t last. She was a fun loving teenage girl full of life all the way till the end.

We are trying to help Melissa’s family and others who can benefit from the RIDE FOR A CAUSE.

Proceeds go to The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Melissa’s family’s medical bills.
