Description:

26-year-old San Clemente local Tara Marquez-Tortarolo was recently married on August 23rd and while on her honeymoon she was admitted to the hospital where she was diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer. She has been the manager of SC favorite Pipes Café for the past 9 years and they will be donating all proceeds on Sept 20th to her fight. Just in the past 2 days over $23,000 has been raised online — a true testament to who Tara is as a person.
