Thank You

Thank You everyone for your support of families afflicted with ALS. The LA County walk for ALS was a great success. There were 150 groups ranging in number from an gaggle of 92 to a dedicated individual of 1, each were there to support or in memory of a person stricken with this disease.

Our final tally: 32 friends and family walked with us that day; through your generous support, as of last count, $7,300 was raised. A special thanks to all who joined our ranks in the walk. Your company was special. Each of you joined on your own accord, volunteered, unsolicited; many taking up our cause as your own asking your own friends for support. And, to all of you who gave so generously, you gave more than what we could have asked. Many donated without being asked. Shirley - the one who started it all - had to continually set the team goal higher and higher: $200, $500, $1000, $1500... Each time a new goal was set ... It was exceeded. Even our final goal of $6500 was surpassed by $800.

Thank you all. Many families will benefit from your generosity and one day, hopefully, a cure will emerge. Most of all, our family is reminded, once again, of the very, very special community that has embraced us.
