My personal message:

Dear Friends and Family,

Chris, Jane, Madeline, and Krista will be participating in the annual "Stepping out to Cure Scleroderma" walk on Saturday, June 6th, at the University of Minnesota Arboretum in Chaska, MN.  This will be our 4th year participating in this special event.
 
We walk each year in memory of Chris's mom, Sally, who died of this heart-breaking disease in January 2004.  She remains fondly in our memories and hearts, and we hope to help in our own small way to find a cure for this destructive illness.
 
In 2006 our friends and family helped us raise $655, in 2007 we increased that amount to $750, and in 2008 we, with the help of additional CH Robinson donations, raised $1609!
 
A very special thank you to all who supported us in our Scleroderma walks in past years!  If you are willing to donate a few dollars towards finding a cure for scleroderma this year, we thank you!   However, we recognize we are in a challenging economic market and we respect this situation.  We will be walking again next year so we will certainly keep in touch!
