For the Wes Alexander Family in overcoming ALS

We are friends & colleagues of Wes Alexander, and we are raising funds to assist his incredible family as they confront Wes’ recent diagnosis of ALS.  It is difficult to know what may be needed, so we will start at the beginning and set the target generously to ensure that all Alexander Family needs are met.

After months of progressive muscle weakness and difficulty, Wes was diagnosed with ALS this year.  If you're not familiar, Lou Gehrig's Disease, also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a progressive disorder that attacks the nerves and muscles.  

We encourage anyone to read more about ALS in the following link:

The ALS Association estimates the average cost annually for expenses related to the diagnosis of ALS is $200,000.  While we don't fully know what will be needed, we will keep you updated as things progress.  What we are certain of is that there will be no shortage of need.

If you know Wes, you know that his family is his greatest joy. Little gives him more happiness than outdoor adventures with his family and friends. He is a connoisseur of BBQ, can talk about any sport you like, and truly enjoys a spirited debate. His generosity of spirit is what we all love about Wes, and it’s time for us to return that gift.

So, let us begin something good together. Let’s show our love and support for Wes’ family in some small way. Let’s help them through their days of challenge and uncertainty with our community of hope, love and support.
