The Easton resident's experience is part of a much bigger conversation about why colorectal cancer is increasingly affecting younger adults . And this weekend, his community is doing something about it. On Sunday, Nov. 15, more then 70 people are expected to gather at Oaks Ames Memorial Hall in Easton for a fundraiser benefiting the Young-Onset Colorectal Cancer Center at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
