We are so thankful for the help and support we have received from the Inland Northwest Alzheimer's Association and others in our struggle to deal with this difficult disease.

As I way to express my gratitude, I'm gathering with others at 10 a.m. Saturday at the Lighthouse on Clover Island to participate in a walk to raise awareness about the resources we have here in the Tri-Cities for families like mine who are living with Alzheimer's.

Check-in and registration for the walk start at 8:30 a.m. Donations received will stay here in the Tri-Cities to help the Inland Northwest Alzheimer's Association help families like mine. You can contact the association at 509-473-3390 or through its website at www.alz.org/inlandnorthwest.
