Boston Walk to End Alzheimer's

Thank you to family, friends and colleagues for supporting the Boston Walk to End Alzheimer's.  It was on a lovely Sunday  in September and we walked in the Charlestown area of Boston with beautiful views of the city.

About 7,500 people participated in the walk.  With your help, I personally raised ~$4,000.  My team raised ~$15,000.  Boston overall raised ~$1.5 million.  Across the country ~$75 million is expected to be raised.  With 5 million suffering from the disease in the US and 15 million around the world and growing fast - this cause needs urgent support.

I am grateful so many colleagues, friends and family who showed thoughtful care and generous support!

Hope you enjoy this pictures from this Sunday!
