I am walking in memory of my mom. She passed away in August 2019. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in the spring of 2017. It was difficult to see the changes in mom, over such a short period of time. I am walking so research will continue and lead to a cure for others.
Mom (Rose) was an independent, outgoing woman, with a wonderful sense of humor. She was often the life of the party. Mom’s family and faith were very important to her. For many years she was an educator. She was a teacher and principal, who touched the lives of many students. Mom (Rose) is loved and remembered by her family, friends and many past students.
I'm helping reclaim the future for millions by participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's(R). Currently, more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. Our future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease.
The end of Alzheimer's disease starts with you. Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research into methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure.
Thank you for joining the movement!
