In 2013, America was home to 585,720 cancer deaths. Maire became one of those statistics.
24-year old former U.S. Army PFC Maire Kent lost her battle to Cardiac Sarcoma, a rare cancer of the heart. All Marie wanted was to see the ocean. Her dying wish was that her ashes would go into a wooden sailboat, handcrafted by blind carpenter George Wurtzel, and her vessel would be set sail in Northern Lake Michigan. Would she reach her final destination? Would anyone care to pick her up and help her? Where do we go when we die? When we die, are we really gone? Maire's Journey is a true story that will stay with you well after the credits roll.
