2022- Hey, it's Zak. When I was little my grandma and grandpa where my biggest fans by far! They taught me so many things, like some of the big words no other kid my age would use, or the Lord's Prayer every time I spent the night;Or trying to learn how to be polite at the dinner table. When I moved to Ashland to live with my Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Chuck we learned she had Alzheimer's. She helped me with so many things and now I have the chance to help her and try and fight Alzheimer's.
2021-
Zak remembers. Zak remembers his Grandma Janet. Janet loves Zak, she might not really be able to say so. Janet was a HUGE blessing in Zak's early years. Her care for Zak was immeasurable. There are my times recently where Zak can say, "Oh, my Grandma taught me that." Like the Lord's Prayer. Isn't that amazing. as Zak confirmed his faith at Church this May, we all rejoice in the foundation set by his Grandma Janet. Zak remembers.

This kid gets it. He may not have all the words to explain his understanding of the struggle that Alzheimer's has on a family. But he feels it. Zak's grandma is suffering with memory issues. She was a major force in Zak's early years. Her devotion to the care she had for Zak is immeasurable, except to say that Zak is an exceptional young boy. I love when Zak shares a random memory of his grandma, like cinnamon toast, or sliced bananas. Or the trips to the zoo.
Zak is a Champion in many ways. Fighting for a cure is one of them. Let's help him reach the Champion level, I know you'll help him reach, and surpass, $500.
The walk his year is EVERYWHERE, so that means all of us can talk a walk on our own and remember that MEMORIES MATTER.
Together, we can end Alzheimer's disease. Please make a donation to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.
Thank you for joining the fight against Alzheimer's!
