I walk PurpleStride in loving memory of my father, who lost his life to pancreatic cancer. This disease took so much from our family, and like so many others, we were left wishing for more time, more answers, and more hope. Walking PurpleStride is my way of honoring my dad’s life while helping to create a future where other families don’t have to endure the same heartbreak.

I am proud to be part of the PanCAN PurpleStride community—PanCAN’s largest event of the year—bringing people together to raise awareness, fund critical research, and ensure free resources are available to patients and families facing pancreatic cancer.

My personal fundraising goal is $1,000, and I would be deeply grateful for your support. Every donation, no matter the size, helps fund lifesaving research, early detection efforts, and patient support services that make a real difference.

If you’re able, please consider donating to support my walk and this important cause. Your generosity helps turn loss into action and gives hope to families who need it most.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me, my family, and everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer. Your support truly means everything.
