For over 25 years now, I have participated in the American Heart Association Greater Nashville Heart Walk as either a walker or Team Coach! Heart disease runs in my family and has also effected several of my friends or family of friends over the years.
I will be walking in honor of my Aunt Karen this year who has recently and successfully gone through heart surgery. This year is also very bittersweet. I will be walking in memory of two people that were a part of my life. My friend Kevin Fincham who passed away in March and my friend/colleague Mike Seestedt that passed away in May.
It is very important to me to continue to increase awareness and to help build healthier lives free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke! I walk because I know that with every step, I’m making a difference in someone’s life.
I always set a goal each year as Team Coach and this year my initial goal is $5,000. However, I would love to surpass that, and I know I can do that with your support!
In advance, THANK YOU!
