I walk in memory of my son, Joel Paton Peterson.

Joel unexpectedly passed away October 25th 2023, at the age of 18, due to sudden cardiac death. We were not aware of any heart conditions. If Joel had collapsed in front of us we would have had the chance to save his life with CPR. Our family walks to raise awareness for heart health and CPR education. This moment in time and contribution is the least we can do to possibly spare someone the everyday heartache our family endures from losing Joel far too soon.

Joel was a kind friend to all and always willing to lend a helping hand. Please channel your "inner Joel", consider donating and joining us for the annual walk. Our hearts smile with every step and donation made as we honor Joel together.
