Dr. Walker's Charity Walk 10/15/17

Donation protected
I couldn't believe it when I overheard a conversation between two women...they were talking about the untimely and sudden death of their beloved veterinarian Dr. Randy Walker.  Dr. Walker?? He's my vet too.  I asked them to tell me the story.  Shocked and saddened by what I heard, I was not able to get him out of my mind for weeks.  One morning I woke up from a dream.  I remembered bits and pieces and had enough clarity to write down what I saw in my dream.  I was standing in the parking lot of Dr. Walker's clinic with lots of people.  We were happy, laughing and celebrating something.  There were balloons and dogs and it was very festive.  I realized that we had just completed a walk in his honor and we had raised a lot of money to benefit two local animal rescue groups.  I knew then the reason I couldn't stop thinking about Dr. Walker was because I was the one who organized the charity walk in my dream!  This has become my passion and purpose, and my opportunity to give back to the community that he served for over 25 years.  His sudden passing has affected many, and has left a deep void in our hearts.  
My goal is to raise at least $12,000 to split between two local animal rescue groups:
Rover's Rest Stop (dogs) www.roversreststop.com and Muchos Gatos (cats) https://muchosgatos.org
The walk will be on Sunday, October 15th 7:00 a.m. in Sun Lakes.  Start and finish at the Sun Lakes Chandler Animal Clinic 9670 E. Riggs Rd #109 Sun Lakes, AZ 85248.  Meet in the front, park in the back.
**SAVE THE DATE!**

All donations will be used to preserve Dr. Walker's memory and honor his legacy towards the well-being of animals in the community.
