Making Every Moment Count

Story

Dale Gosselin Taylor's recent diagnosis of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) changes everything. Along with hundreds of her friends, family, neighbours, colleagues, students, fellow artists and travel buddies, we are struggling to comprehend what this means for her and Rick. And wondering what we can do to make this terrible journey just a little more bearable. This fundraiser is a beginning, and we invite you to join us. Always a planner, Dale is very focused on getting organized and accelerating the timeline for the things on her "someday I'd love to" list. A couple of really special trips with her children and grandchildren are her first priority. Eventually, she and Rick will be making some expensive renovations, changes and accommodations to keep life as normal and comfortable as possible. Dale's remarkable strength of spirit and positivity will be her best ally in facing this challenge. And the love, support and friendship of all of us is a given. By creating a nest egg she and Rick can draw on in the years ahead, we can help them make every moment count and ease a little of the stress and worry they're facing. On behalf of Dale and Rick, thank you so much for your generosity. Christine and Ferdinand Trauttmansdorff Friends and neighbours.
