Marlow family hosts motorcycle run benefiting boy fighting cancer

MARLOW, Ok (RNN Texoma) - A Marlow family held the 13th annual Yayo motorcycle run on Saturday to help a boy with his fight against cancer.

Over 100 bikers showed up for the annual run. It was dedicated to five-year-old Jose Mitchell who is battling leukemia.

The group rode from Marlow to Lawton's Wind River Harley Davidson and then onto Medicine Park. One of Yayo's sons said this is the way their family chooses to help another in need. "And this is all for him and his family," said Francisco Varela. "And we love to help a family or somebody in the community and we wish we could do more."

Varela said his family is already planning to help someone in need next year.
