I walk because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.

We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. Will you help me?  Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.

This year, as we celebrate the 101st year of the American Heart Association, we will move health and well-being forward in important and critical ways. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.  This July will also mark the 19th anniversary of my Open Heart Surgery and receiving five bypasses.  This will be the 20th Maryland HeartWalk this year that my family and I have participated in.  My family and I have been loyal supporters of the American Heart Association and the Maryland HeartWalk and have helped raise over $97K since 2007.

Remember to build as many Arks (Acts of Random Kindness) for every heart in the World.  Each and every one of us can make a difference.

Have a heart and help me reach my goal today.
