Kate, a message from your family, friends and countless supporters…….

YOU DID IT!!! You accomplished your goal of the 1st Annual Scleroderma Walk/Run in memory of Randy. And what an accomplishment it was! Look at what your hard work and incredible determination has done and will do for the individuals living with this disease. We all knew you could do it! Your drive in making Randy’s mission happen is inspirational. We are all so proud of you, as we know Randy is too! He surely is SMILING down on us all today!

You were worried after you lost Randy that everyone would go back to their lives and leave you behind to find your “new normal” with Alek. It is our hope that this event and the preparation leading up to it, has shown you that you were not left behind. We know that we can not fill the void that Randy left in your life but we are all here for you and Alek whenever and wherever you need us. Just put out the call, text, e-mail, or blog post and we’ll all come running! Hopefully, knowing this provides you with some comfort. WE LOVE YOU!! And are looking forward to being a part of the 2nd Annual Scleroderma Walk/Run in memory of Randy Duprey.

FINAL MEETING BEFORE THE BIG DAY!!! A LITTLE ANGEL SHOWED UP WITH A BIG DELIVERY

Tonight's meeting at the event spot went very well. I had a great turn out, which has been a blessing. I love the idea that this walk has brought me close to people that I have not seen or spoken to in years. I am trying to keep myself busy and together for the most part, but I am finding I am less myself. It is hard to believe I will be walking on Sunday in Memory of my very own Husband, my sons Father. It floors me. I tell Alek we are on our way to a meeting for Da-Da's walk and then I think to myself, he has no idea what that really means. One day he will and he will be proud to be able to walk in it for his father..........

So among the meeting was a beautiful child Alyssa Waters. Her mother and her have been coming to the meetings and Alyssa has been very helpful with the little kiddos running around. She is only 9 and has a huge heart and is so motherly. Her father and I coach together and he was also my coach in HS. So, she comes up to me tonight and hands me this envelope. You can read what it says below...........



THERE IS AN ANGEL AMONGST US PEOPLE!!!

This little girl raised $520 by asking her teachers at school to sponsor her..........




Bless her heart and I have tears rolling down my face as I write this because she will change lives and that people is what it is all about............Love ya Kid!! and thank you for all your dedication...........

the 3rd meeting was amazing.........THE COUNT DOWN IS ON 10 DAYS!!!!!!!

The turn out for our 3rd meeting was flooring.........

It was a sunny, beautiful Wednesday evening and here I had 20-30 people filling our family business to support me with this walk.........I just cannot begin to express how wonderful it was. I kept my emotions in check and we got so much accomplished. I cannot even begin to put it in words how amazing this committee of people has been....

I think the only way to explain it is for people to come to the walk and see for yourself.

I will soon be putting the first list of Online donations that have come in through this pay pal button...........

Thank you all so much.

I cannot even begin to start to thank all the business's, people, and family that have made this so much easier of an event than I expected.

The tri state chapter of the Scleroderma Foundation has been wonderful and so supportive.

I cannot wait to see everyone at the walk and I hope I can not be on an emotional overload that day...........

This little boy is going to be very thankful for all of you one day when he can look back and understand that all of you reached out and helped to find a cause and sure for this disease.........
