PLEASE HELP US HONOR JIM SHIELDS (aka, Pop Pop) AS HE FIGHTS HIS BATTLE WITH ALS, and also JANE (Mum Mum) his wife, his love and daily caregiver! They've been together since high school and this is the greatest challenge of their lives.
We celebrated their 60th Anniversary at a special lunch in January! So many wonderful years of love!
Jim was diagnosed with ALS twelve years ago and he has been fighting and beating the odds ever since. Jane has been there with him all along the way even through her own health issues.
With the love and help of so many friends and family, we have exceeded our goals each year as we participate in the annual Pittsburgh Walk to Defeat ALS.
THIS IS OUR 13th WALK!
PLEASE HELP US BEAT OUR GOAL AGAIN THIS YEAR!
You can see a photo above of Dad and Mom with family at their place in Somers Point, NJ - and if you click on Jim Jr's name (in the team member list) you can see photos of Dad and Mom at their 60th anniversary celebration!
Thank you again from all of us -- especially Dad and Mom! The love and support of family and friends means the world to us!
Jim Jr., Colleen and all our family -- We are Pop Pop's Jumping Jaguars!
