Hello friends,

I am honored to be riding again this year, though this time carries a deeper meaning. In February, I lost my grandmother to heart failure, and her absence has left a lasting impact on my life.

My grandmother had a lifelong love for horses. She grew up around them and continued that passion into adulthood while raising her family. Because of this, participating in this ride feels especially meaningful, as it allows me to honor her memory while staying connected to something she cherished.

With the support of the AHA 2026 donors, I am grateful for the opportunity to ride in her remembrance this year. Thank you to everyone who continues to support this cause and helps keep her spirit alive.

Thank you for supporting American Heart Association. Your contribution is greatly appreciated while keeping memories alive of loved ones
