At this past weekend’s Susan G. Komen Dallas/Fort Worth 3-Day® we were thrilled to present Nathan B. with the Crew Impact Award, recognizing his more than two decades of dedicated service to the Pink Bubble community. 

Nathan’s journey with the 3-Day began in 2001, inspired by his family’s long history with cancer. Since then, he has crewed in honor of his aunt Amy, a 20-year breast cancer survivor; his grandmother Joan, who survived breast cancer twice before losing her life to leukemia in 2014; his cousin Will, who passed away in 2024; and his uncle who currently has cancer. 

During the Celebration of Champions ceremony, Carolyn H. honored Nathan on stage, sharing his dedication to the 3-Day. 

“Every long shift, every early morning, every late night has been in their honor. And for everyone touched by this disease,” she said. 

Over the past 25 years, Nathan has been a cornerstone for the 3-Day Crew. His teammates describe him as someone who always shows up, lends a hand and helps make every event run smoother, year after year. This season, Nathan told his team that it might be his final 3-Day. He is thinking about retiring from the Crew saying, “It’s time to leave while I’m still having fun.” 

While Nathan will be missed, Carolyn said he has left a lasting impression on the 3-Day, and on “everyone lucky enough to serve beside him.” 

Congratulations, Nathan, on this well-deserved honor!

You are truly an extraordinary example of service and kindness, and we are so grateful for your 25 years of dedication to the Crew.
