This is my third Heart Walk and I'm still  trying to learn everything I can from my Big Brother, Austin, who  is participating in his 16th Walk - and he's just 15.5 years old!!! Like Austin, I'm trying to raise some dough in memory our Grand Daddies.  Mom started participating in the Walk 18 or 19 years ago in memory of her Daddy Elvin, my Grand Daddy.  She wanted to honor his memory as the  Walk is araound the day of his birthday and the day he had a massive heart attack.  I'm also participating in memory of Grand Daddy Duane who benefited from aortic valve replacement - a big group of words for me - when he was almost 90.  I also participate for so many who have been impacted by heart disease and stoke, including my Uncle Irby who we rencently lost.

Thank you in advance for your support!! I might even give you a lick or one of my special bones!!!
