Friends & Family,

The 2025 PanMass is fast approaching and I am asking you, again, to consider your support.

I began my riding in 2022 for my fellow Brothers & Sisters of Boston Firefighters L718 and the greater fire service, along with my dear Aunt Maureen.

In 2023, the ride  became even more personal as Engine 16’s own, FLT Edward Bergdoll, lost his hard fought battle with occupational cancer. A larger than life, exceptional human being who was torn from us far too soon by this horrible disease. Anyone who had the privilege to know Eddie, knew that not only did he bring a bull-hearted determination and effort to work, but he was among the kindest human beings you would ever meet. He was the helper among helpers. 

Since then, the list continues to grow at troubling rates, as the scourge of cancer grips ahold of more and more BFD Members and their families. I humbly ask for your consideration and support. Everything helps. Thank You.

**NO ONE FIGHTS ALONE**
