My personal message:
Hello Friends and Family,

On April 26th, Danielle Juliette and I will be walking for Autism.  We are looking to you for sponsorship.  It is our hope to raise $150 for the Autism Society of Delaware.  We are trying to do this with pledges of $10.

Our lives have been touched through the hardships of our friends and family who have struggled to develop and nuture their children who have been born with developmental diseases, in particular autism.

As many of you know we are expecting our second child in May.  We pray that our child is healthy.  However we are still mindful of the fact that in the past 10 years the growth of autism has been increasing at a staggering rate.

We have been moved to participate in this walk by several of our friends and family who have been afflicted by this disease in its many stages of its spectrum.  In particular we will be walking in tribute to Liam Bradley.

Liam was the son of our good friends, Denise and Pete Bradley.  He was born with severe autism.  His parents put their blood sweat and tears into his development and well being.  Last year tragically Liam passed away.  He was still a child.  Liam was survived by his parents and his sister Alana, and brother Connor.  This tragedy has been hard on the family.

By showing your support to this cause you will help the unborn, the children born with this disease and the Bradley family.

"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." I Timothy 4:12
