PROSTATE CANCER CLIMB Bio
“After studying all accounts of the mountain, I am convinced that only the wings of an angel will put me on the summit, but I will give it everything I’ve got,” said Art, who hails from the same hometown as 75-year-old Aconcagua veteran Bob Butler. Both live in Fredericksburg, Texas and both are solid proof that with proper care and treatment, men can live many years with prostate cancer and not die from it. “I believe I owe my life to the research that has been done in past years,” Art said. “Looking into future research can surely save an untold number of lives. This is why I believe I am obligated to try for this climb and add to the publicity it will bring to prostate cancer awareness.”
Proceeds of the Prostate Cancer Climb will go exclusively to funding education and research. Distribution of the Hap Weyman Memorial Prostate Cancer Project Fund will be determined by the Independent Educational Research Funding Committee (IERFC). |

75, Art is the oldest member of the Kilimanjaro team—and also a cancer
survivor. A combination of hormone therapy and radiation treatments have
kept his disease in check, but Art worries that the 19,400-foot “Kili”
summit might be out of his reach. The tough Texan is still determined
to try.
