The 2013 Gala for Life benefiting the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute honored Sen. David and Barbara Pryor with the Pat & Willard Walker Tribute Award. Jennifer and Steve Ronnel served as event co-chairs of the gala, which drew more than 830 guests and raised over $1 million for the institute’s programs. Held at the Statehouse Convention Center, the event began with a reception and welcome, followed by a dinner of grilled steak Diane with asparagus, parmesan-crusted roasted tomato and parsnip puree. Guests then enjoyed a brief program, a live auction and live entertainment by The Temptations Review featuring Dennis Edwards.
