Welcome! Thanks for stopping by. I'm simply amazed that altruism and kindhearted philanthropy are alive & kicking! As you can see, I've almost met my fundraising goal . . .
I trained to participate in an endurance event as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I completed this marathon in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!
Wow! So many friends & family have made incredibly generous donations. Your gifts not only support my participation in Team In Training, but, more importantly help advance the Society's mission. Many Thanks! If you haven't given yet, I'd love for you to join the growing list!
I did it!!! I ran 26.2 miles along the streets of San Diego on June 4th!!!! During my training I logged well over 200 miles!!! Christie, my beloved wife, did her part by pushing me out of bed in the morning to go running. Our faithful canine companion, Gabby, did her part by pulling me up the hills. Here's hoping you're inspired to do your part! Thanks for your support!
