Life is Why! Join me in supporting the American Heart Association
I have been fundraising for the American Heart Association's Annual Heart Walk for about 22 years now. As most of you know, my father lost his battle with heart disease back in 2008, which motivated me to create Team Florio and get others to help fundraise with me. Nine years ago I lost my godfather, Tony Susi, unexpectedly to congestive heart failure, three years ago my uncle Rino Cavalluzzo, who suffered with heart disease, also passed. My cousin LJ had a major heart attack and passed last year. I also walk for those battling heart conditions and side effects from cardiac events. My uncle Sal, who had a stroke four years ago; two years ago one of my father-in-laws, Wayne, had a heart attack; my aunt Sugar had a major cardiac event two years ago; both Mamma Florio and Erick have dealt with afib the past couple of years; and most recently, our friend Steve finally received his heart transplant after many years of cardiac issues, but encountered post-surgery complications. The list of people I walk for, whether victims or survivors, family or friends, grows constantly.
My participation in the Heart Walk promotes fun ways to be physically active and make healthier choices every day. Please help me reach this lifesaving goal by donating today. Together, we can make healthier, longer lives possible for everyone.
Thank you in advance for your support!
