Part of Cristina Kalesse's job as an assistant principal at Alexis I duPont Middle School in Wilmington is to start a conversation."When I am here at this middle school, I do deal with those issues and I do have to have conversations with students about that," said Kalesse.Kalesse's husband Rob passed away in 2020 from stage 4 metastatic lung cancer.
"He couldn't fight anymore and I felt it was something I needed to do, that I needed to keep fighting," she continued. Last week, she was in Washington D.C. fighting for more funding for lung cancer research. It's work that she says keeps her husband's memory alive.
