In Memory of Sydney Heersink

“Coping with a cancer diagnosis is about standing in that fear and saying I choose to live a beautiful, passionate, impactful life,” Sydney Heersink, December 5, 2018.
It’s with great sadness and heavy hearts that we share that our beloved Sydney passed away peacefully this afternoon.
Sydney spent the last year exploring New York City with her dad, family, and friends all the while fighting a courageous battle of stage IV endometrial cancer.
Syd’s love for life, her studies, and desire to see the world were infectious and inspired those around her. She faced every new obstacle with a smile and determination to get through it. Throughout the past few months, while undergoing countless surgeries, radiation, new chemotherapies and trying to maneuver in a wheelchair in Manhattan, the confidence she had in herself never wavered.
Sydney lived a beautiful, passionate and impactful life and is going to be with all of us always.
