At two and a half years old, Juliana passed away from neuroblastoma in 2012. She battled the rare pediatric cancer for 10 months, and throughout rigorous treatment, Juliana kept spirits bright with her glowing personality.

"We knew it was a tough task because that tree has never been lit for any other month besides December."
