Because I have so many friends and family members who have been affected by heart disease, I've decided to commit to walking the Heart Walk in June 2025. The picture in my profile is of my dad, a few years before he passed away from congestive heart failure after over a dozen heart attacks. Although he fought hard, he lost his battle shortly after retiring.
My dad was a foot soldier in WWII, a proud member of The Big Red One... and fought five major battles. He was an advocate for anyone who needed help, and the strongest person I know. He was our hero, but his heart was just not strong enough and heart disease took him at the young age of 66. I was only 25 at the time, and there's not a day that goes by, that I don't miss him.
I'm walking to save lives.... please consider helping me to reach my goal.
