Journal entry by Donni Torres

Hello all. I know many of us thought of Rich yesterday, on what was supposed to be Twin Cities Marathon day. He would've been so pissed that the race was canceled due to high temps -- and probably would have been one of those who ran it anyway!

It was the pain in his hip while running that launched Rich on the journey to diagnose his ALS. In his memory, his sister, Ylianna, is doing the annual ALS walk fundraiser. The walk takes place on the one-year anniversary of his death. He desperately did not want his death to be in vain. It would mean a lot if you honored his memory by donating to her walk!

Thank you so much, and thanks also for your continued love and support!
