As some of you already know, on October 28th, 2009, My dad died as a result of ALS (Lou Gerhigs Disease).

It is quite possibly the worst disease I have ever seen. Ever.

If you are unaware of what ALS is, I encourage you to look it up. I'll spare the details on this post.

Since my dad was diagnosed with this disease, my sister has been very active in ALS awareness. Much more than me. It's still hard for me to think about.

Anyway, she organized and hosted a 9-ball pool tournament to benefit The ALS group and help raise awareness.

This was one of the prizes.

It's the worst bro. I saw him work harder to lift a pen to write "i love you" than I have ever worked.

Kevin,

I am a biker and I am a Patriot Guard Rider.

Please allow me to sit here and type: I have a good friend that was diagnosed with ALS just 2 years ago. All I can say is that my heart goes out to you on the loss of your dad. I pray that through my thoughts and prayers that I can bring both honor and respect to you, your dad, and your family.

Beautiful work for a most awesome dad.

I'm loosing my dad to a very rare cancer that they can't cure.

Thanks,

Dennis
