Henry & Kaye's story
Henry Halmans and Kaye Rehm are helping to ensure that no one goes through cancer without care, by generously leaving a gift in their Wills to the McGrath Foundation in honour of Henry’s late wife and Kaye’s sister Irene.
“I’d like to think there’s not another version of me out there whose sister has to go through all this alone. I want her to know that her sister has real support, not just from a brochure but from a real person,” Kaye says.
