Gibeaut said, "Kathy [Marose co-stool] and I talked about putting other people in to take over. I have done it long enough, and [it's time to] let some immature blood in."
As a charter member of the fundraiser, she said, "I don't remember what precipitated starting the Relay, but there were three of us who organized it in 1993." Her purpose for becoming involved was because her first husband's parents, Bernice and George Jilek, both died of cancer. Since then, she has had friends who died of cancer and many who are survivors.

Organizers would business around the clock and catch a few hours of sleep in their tents. Gibeaut said she was very satisfied when the time for the fundraiser changed to end Saturday morning instead of the evening.
