I'm running the Falmouth Road Race to END ALZ!

Kathy, my beloved wife, best friend, and soulmate, passed away on April 21, 2026, after a very courageous eight year battle fighting Alzheimer's Disease. She was only 72 years old. I'm the luckiest guy in the world to have had her in my life for the last 46 years. I was her primary caregiver throughout this difficult and very sad time. 

Kathy was a very gifted musician. Her legacy lives on in the music she shared, the family she cherished, and the countless lives she touched with her warmth and kindness.

I made a promise to Kathy that I would do something very special for her to raise money to help find a cure for Alzheimer's Disease. That something very special is running in the 2026 ASICS Falmouth Road Race with Team End ALZ. I love to run, and Kathy loved to run as well. She will be running with me every step of the way on August 16th.
