Bill was diagnosed with ALS in 2007. Little by little he lost the use of his limbs, his ability to swallow and ultimately his ability to eat and breathe. God called him to heaven on November 11, 2008, ten days short of his 54th birthday. Bill loved life, but most of all he loved God and the Lord Jesus Christ. He loved the Bible and the church. He loved water skiing, singing (he sang in the church choir, in the shower and anywhere he could.) He had a beautiful voice. He absolutely loved his family and friends.
Bill participated in the Walk to Defeat ALS in 2008. The picture featured here is from that walk and he is with his brother, Frank (who have since also passed away, with cancer,) and sister, Joan. He loved the walk and was so proud to have such a wonderful team. It meant a lot to him.
I have participated on every walk since that walk and will do so again this year. In January 2, 2011, I was married to Roy McLaughlin. He too suffered loss due to ALS. His wife, Jo, died in 2008. We walk in memory of them and of all the friends we have lost to this disease and for the ones presently suffering from it. Both of us are doing everything we can to raise funds and awareness of this horrible disease. We hope and pray a cure will be found during our life time. We also want to raise funds so that the ALS association can provide much needed assistance and support to those suffering from the disease and may I add that I am forever grateful to the ALS Association for all the support and help they offered to Bill and me during our journey with ALS.
Please help us to reach our overall Jacksonville goal of $300,000 this year and my personal goal of $1,000 Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all the support you have given us in the past few years and I know you will help us again this year.
God bless!
