Family and Friends,
It's HEART WALK time, .
This will be my 28th year participating...
This year I am setting "OUR" fundraising goal at $3200.
I have increased our goal by a little every year, and each and every year you ALL have helped me MEET AND EXCEED the goal mark...
THANK YOU
(we MADE IT last year... and we CAN DO IT AGAIN)
The American Heart Association continues to do research each and every day to fine tune procedures to SAVE our lives, but that costs thousands. More new procedures, mean better chances for us, and our loved ones... to live longer lives.
Thank you in advance, to everyone, who has always supported me, and to those who are about to. All of your donations , have been greatly appreciated.
WHY DO I WALK EVERY SINGLE YEAR ?
Well.... me, Mike, and my family have vested interest in the American Heart Association. Heart disease runs in our families.
Both mine and Mike's parents had heart or stroke incidences. Our dad's both had sudden cardiac events. Sadly, Mike's dad did not survive his heart attack. Along with our dad's, both of our moms were also affected. Mikes mom suffered a mild stroke in the years prior to her death. My mom passed in her sleep to what we assume was another heart attack.
By the grace of God, my dad's heart attack ended differently. My dad was resuscitated by citizens on the street who were educated in CPR, they kept my dad alive, until an ambulance crew arrived and used a defibrillator to restart his heart. He then underwent quadruple heart bypass surgery and was able to live an additional 20 years.
Following my dad's open heart surgery, he was very grateful to be alive. It was then that Team Tederson was created. In those 20 years, he raised several thousands of dollars. He wanted to give back for his gift of life.
Now, by siblings, my children and I continue his mission of giving back.
We WANT to raise more $$$ for continued research and more education. Our goal is many more survivor story's like my dad's, some 20 years ago.
We are asking you to PLEASE GIVE, what you can... any amount is welcome and will help save lives. We never know who the next life, who needs saving will be.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE, WITH LOVE
Wenda and Mike
