2026 Kern County Heart & Stroke Walk
Deacons Project
Walking for David Ray McCabe Sr.
On January 31, 2026, our lives changed forever when David suffered a massive heart attack at just 51 years old. Despite every effort, the severe brain injury he sustained was too much to overcome, and we had to make the heartbreaking decision to let him go.
Heart disease can strike anyone, at any time without warning. We are sharing David's story to remind everyone to prioritize their health, schedule regular checkups, and take preventive care seriously. No family should have to endure this kind of grief.
Please support our team for the American Heart Association Walk. Every donation fuels vital research, spreads awareness, and helps save lives.

9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital don’t survive. Most of the time, it’s because no one nearby performed CPR. But together, we can change that.
Extraordinary things happen when people take action. A small step. A simple skill. A lifesaving moment. Heart Walk brings communities together to create health and hope for every heartbeat. Every walker who joins, every dollar donated, means more people trained in CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone.
