      Erik --



      Most if not all of us have known someone who has suffered from a heart attack, stroke, or some type of cardiovascular disease. Many of us have lost family members or close friends from diseases of the heart.



      Wouldn't it be wonderful if these type of deaths could become a thing of the past? Research continues as we speak in the hope that some day cardiovascular diseases can be treated successfully. The American Heart Association has set this as their mission:








      OUR MISSION:

      Building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.

      OUR IMPACT:

      By 2020, to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans by 20 percent while reducing deaths from cardiovascular disease and stroke by 20 percent.







      It sounds wonderful but it takes money for research. That's where you and I come in.



      In Orange County, California, the 30th annual Start! Orange County Heart Walk is going to take place on September 19. Volunteers are going to walk 3 miles in order to raise money for the American Heart Association. I know that you have heard me speak of my friend, Erik, who owns Straight N' Arrow Productions. Erik and some other construction workers he works with have joined together to create a team. This team is going to walk those 3 miles on September 19 in order to help raise money for the American Heart Association. This is an important project for Erik as his wife Courtney's Uncle Bill passed away not long ago from a heart attack. The mother (Tammy) of one of his friends passed last year from heart disease. This group is calling itself Team Tam and right now is the time for us to step up and support our friend Erik on this 3-mile walk.



      Please consider making a donation to this GREAT cause! You can donate online using a credit/debit card, PayPal, or online check. You can also go to the website and download the donation form and then mail the check along with the donation form to the address on the form. Minimum donation is $25.00 but think how that money is going to be used -- to do research on cardiovascular diseases and then get that research into the hands of the doctors who can save lives. When you think of it that way $25.00 is not much.



      As Erik puts it,



      "I am going to take my out of shape butt out there and walk for a GREAT cause. As you know Courtney's Uncle and Sherry's brother Bill passed away recently from a heat attack. My very close and dear friend's Mother Tammy passed away last year from heart disease. Please help us reach our goal. Click on the link below to send donations. Thank you and God Bless."

      That is a picture of Courtney's Uncle Bill on Erik's donation page. If you have any questions please contact me.



      I can't put it any better than Erik did. To all of you who participate in this GREAT cause, "thank you and God Bless".
