Each tombstone represents one of the 60 people expected to die from melanoma in the next two weeks — a cancer that kills 3-4 Canadians daily and is 95% preventable through sun safety. The fund was founded in memory of David Cornfield, a 32-year-old father who died from melanoma in 2005, and aims to stop other families from enduring the same loss. With Canada having one of the world’s highest melanoma rates — 11,300 new cases projected in 2026 — the display contrasts beach bliss with sobering stats. Experts urge daily sun protection: seek shade between 11 AM and 3 PM, wear protective clothing, apply sunscreen, and check your skin regularly. Early detection saves lives — and this installation is a stark, beautiful wake-up call. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
