She carries her husband’s legacy to raise funds for Alzheimer’s research.

I am so inspired by Sheila Gann’s love for her husband and her resilience. Anyone who has lost a loved one to Alzheimer’s knows how cruel this disease is, not only for the patient but also for those who love and care for them. Mike and Sheila clearly had an extraordinary love story, and now she’s honoring it in the most beautiful way. Thanks to Forrest Sanders for sharing his story.
