A longtime resident of central Arkansas, Mr. Collier has two sons as well as two grandsons and is engaged to Ms. Brenda Thompson of Conway. “Cancer, as a disease, is something very personal with me. I have lost friends and relatives to various forms of cancer, including prostate cancer, and I also have a number of good friends who are prostate cancer survivors. Education, through early detection, is so vitally important.”
