Your children are your legacy to the world. As you raise them with love, you contribute to making this world a better place. ~Kristine Carlson



Alexandra's words often ring in my head.
"Giving hope to a near hopeless situation"


One year ago 12 runners, two vans
and a lot of love
raised over $20,000.00
to help educate families,
doctors and the world
on 
Frontotemporal Degeneration.

She was watching her father disappear,
and this was what she could do.


This year 36 runners, 6 vans
and even more love
if that is possible
raised over $50,000.00.
The money is earmarked
for research. 
We need to understand more about this disease.


This year her dad is watching over her.
She no longer has to see him decline.
She is learning to grieve.



With the love and support of so many.
Friends from Elementary School,
High School,
Colleges,
Friends of Friends.
Thank you for making
The Second Annual 
Neon Extreme Radner Relay
a huge success

Hello Cheryl:
This annual fundraising event is an incredibly positive outcome from the incredibly sad situation regarding Kenny's illness. You must be incredibly proud of your daughter and, it is a great tribute to her passion and personality that she has encouraged so many to come together in this cause and to raise such an amazing sum of money.

Sadly, nothing can change what has happened to your family, but one can hope that through research and development, other families may be spared this suffering.
