Our Inspiration

Sundance Pharmaceuticals dedication to cannabis medicine is inspired by the life of Thomas Duff Lilly, beloved son and only child of co-founder Kim Bechthold. Mr. Lilly was injured by four concussions in his lifetime and developed Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. Spirited and with great courage, Mr. Lilly skied, hiked, bicycled and danced like a “wild man” despite his injuries.

His friends, family and loved ones remember his compassion, his kindness, his great laugh, his love of his Golden Retrievers, the 49ers, Broncos and the Rockies, music, celebrations, and his extraordinary, uncompromising will never to give up and to live life to the fullest every hour of every day.
