Former NFL football player Mark Rypien shared a little bling-bling with seventh graders at All Saints School recently. Rypien brought his two Superbowl rings to share with the class to thank them for their hard work in raising funds for the Rypien Foundation that helps children with cancer and their families during hospital stays. The class, which has fighting cancer as their premiere service project, sold an autographed football at the school to raise the funds. In addition, the seventh graders also participate in the Relay for Life and have become pen-pals with children with cancer who are at Sacred Heart Medical Center. (IR photo from All Saints School)
