MS Walk 2011: Team The J Crew

Today we as a family participated in the MS Walk 2011 Inland Empire. As a family we raised a total of $570. Thank you to all our wonderful family and friends who gave to such a great cause. As a team we raised over $7000!! Isn't that awesome!!

This was a very special walk for us because just a months ago, my close friend, John, was diagnosed with MS.

I have known John since high school and we have remained friends through all these years. There is a reason why we remain friends, he is a wonderful person. Through college he was one of a few of my high school friends that visited me at college. He was like a big brother who went to check in on his little sister while she was away at college, I always knew I could count on him.

His beautiful and supportive wife led our team to raise all that money for the National MS Society. She is awesome!
