Dear Friend, In our family, my grandmother Josie was the center. I have such great memories of our entire family arriving at my grandparents' house to celebrate the simple joy of being together. To this day I can still visualize the love and smell the wonderful aromas in my grandmother's kitchen. As much as we developed, tweaked and eventually abandoned recipes, we've never been able to recreate her talent for cooking – Alzheimer's disease stole this gift from us. We didn't expect these celebrations to end sooner than they should. Alzheimer's disease crept quietly into these moments and eventually |

| changed them forever. We lost Josie this year and the hole she left in our family can never be filled. From donating to carrying a purple flower in this year's Walk to End Alzheimer's®, my family recognizes the importance of giving back. Families like mine who are coping with this devastating disease turn to the Alzheimer's Association for information, guidance and support. You can help the Association continue to provide these vital resources. Every family has to take their own path on their Alzheimer's journey, but the Alzheimer's Association is here to make that journey easier. Your gift will help ensure that resources are there for families through those difficult times. |
