Blue Angels visit SCCA patients and families during Seafair

Brief

On Aug. 4, just prior to their final practice for the Seafair weekend, three Blue Angels came to the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance for a visit with patients and their families.

It's become a much anticipated Seafair week tradition. Every year (for the past decade) Blue Angels — sometimes pilots, sometimes Angels who have been touched by cancer in their own families — spend time visiting patients at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. Usually, two Blue Angels come to visit. This year, patients and families got to spend time, take pictures and walk away with autographs of three Angels.
