Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. Participating in the Walk to End Alzheimer's holds a special significance for our family, as we remember our cherished Grandpa Chip, who passed away in 2016 after bravely battling this disease. Despite the challenges he faced, Grandpa Chip found solace in simple joys: watching birds flutter by and singing melodies in that sweet voice of his. His love for life and gentle nature extended to his adoration for children, whose laughter brought him immense joy. As we walk today, we carry his memory in our hearts, knowing that he has found peace reunited with Grandma Chip. Their love story continues to inspire us, motivating us to raise awareness and support Alzheimer's research, ensuring that one day, families like ours won't have to say goodbye too soon.

 By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, I’m raising awareness and funds to advance the fight against this disease — funds that allow the Alzheimer’s Association to provide 24/7 care and support while accelerating critical research.

Families facing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia need us — and with your help, we can be there for them. Please make a donation or register as a participant and start your own fundraising efforts. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.

Thank you for your support!
