A VISIONARY GIFT FROM O’NEAL INDUSTRIES AND

A PREMIER NATIONAL DESTINATION FOR THOSE
WORKING TO END CANCER AND FOR THOSE
FIGHTING A PERSONAL BATTLE WITH THE DISEASE.
The shareholders of O’Neal Industries, Inc., were motivated to give the naming gift of the Comprehensive Cancer Center to play a role in extending the
lives of people with cancer. Left to right (standing): Holman Head, John O’Neal, Craft O’Neal, Craft O’Neal, Jr., Jack Reed, III, Libby Sibley and Ruffner
