Kevin King Posted August 30, 2010 Report Posted August 30, 2010 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. Love ya and miss ya pop! Thanks for looking friends!
