 Dear
Friends - It is hard for me to believe that it has been a year since
Susan died. This August would have been our 22nd wedding anniversary. I
cannot help but reflect on all the memories she left me with along with
our two beautiful girls Tekla and Chisana. I was truly blessed to have
shared a life with her. Even though Susan is gone, the awful disease
that took her from all of us is still inflicting its pain on others.
Last year when Susan was sick, I ran a marathon in honor of her
on-going fight to survive. She was very supportive of my effort to
raise money to help find a cure the disease she was valiantly fighting.
I ran as part of the Team in Training program to benefit the Leukemia
and Lymphoma Society (LLS). The LLS raises precious research money used
to find a cure for all blood cancers as well as providing support to
families who are affected and displaced by the illness of a loved
family member.
This year I am running again. This year, I must run in
Susan’s memory and the memory of all the brave people we met in the
hospital who lost their fight. I am running to raise awareness so that
a cure for Leukemia and Lymphoma can be found. I ask you to join me
again by supporting the work of the LLS by making a donation through my
race to help others. Should you like to support my efforts, please make
a donation on line at:
With love and appreciation for your support of my family
and this important cause.
