Walking in memory of those affected by heart disease is a powerful way to honor loved ones and raise awareness about heart health. I originally created Team Myleti in 2019 in honor of my Mom.
My Mom "Ellie" will always be remembered for her warmth, thoughtfulness, kindness and selfless nature. She always put others before herself and made everyone else feel like family. While she was always giving so much of her heart to others, many did not know that she had been battling heart failure since 2000. As she loved many and was loved by many, she unfortunately passed away on June 2, 2019, and is missed like crazy.
I was completely overwhelmed by all the support of Team Myleti that first year! In thinking about it all and realizing that so many others have also been affected by heart disease, it only seemed right to carry on Team Myleti and begin to walk for ALL the ones we love. So, let's do this year SEVEN . . . TEAM MYLETI . . . walking for the ones we love!
