My personal message:

Hello everyone,

We are very excited about the Scleroderma walk coming up! This will be the 2nd year for "Team Gail". Last year we raised $1000 and this year we hope to raise $2000! We are very excited as there is a walk in  Missouri on October 12th and there is also a walk in Sacramento California on September 28th.

My husband and sons will be helping me lead the way here in Missouri and my sisters and brother and their families  will help me lead the way in California. ( I am grateful that I am able to join them on this day) We would love it if any of our friends and family would like to be a part of this walk with us. Any of you are welcome to come to MO or CA  and stay with us as well. These are very important days for all of us. It is a time for FAMILY & FRIENDS. Our mother Gail Marie Garcia, has been gone for almost 12 years now and it doesn't get any easier. We love her and miss her terribly. She is always in our mind and in our hearts. Her memory will always be alive in all of us. Thank you for not forgetting her!

We want to THANK YOU in advance for any help or support that you might give. There is still no cure for Scleroderma, but we are doing our best to raise as much money as we can to help in the research to FIND A CURE!

If you have any questions or want to be a part of our team, please contact me at juspooh41@charter.net . We can never have enough support!

Our love to all,  

Pooh, Jeff, Dom & Jake  -   "Team Gail" 2008
