My wife, Angela, passed away in January 2020 due to complications from ALS. We miss her so much. We were married for almost 28 years. We have three beautiful children; Jake, Brooke, and Jackson. Angela was just 49 when she lost her battle to this terrible disease. We will continue to fight for a cure in honor of her. Our Queen!
Angela did so much to raise awareness for ALS while she battled this disease. We will continue to walk in her memory and for all people that have or that are currently fighting. She was an angel among us!
Please join my family, friends, and I as we walk in support of her, and everyone before her that has suffered from this disease. We hope you will walk with us in the Stanley Stampede on September 12, 2021. We will do a short walk in our neighborhood at 10:00 am. Even if you can't join us, I hope you will be able to donate so a cure can be found soon.

ABOUT ALS
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis.
ALS can strike anyone. Presently there is no known cause of the disease, yet it still costs loved ones an average of $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need. Join the movement to provide help and hope today!
