Cancer hit us us really hard this past year. After a courageous fight my mother in law Elaine Brosnan lost her battle to colon cancer. Elaine was an amazing woman and meant the world to me and my family. After losing my own mother to breast cancer at the age of 52 I couldn't have asked for a better person to step into the role of Mom to me and Nanny to our 3 boys than Elaine. I miss my Mom every day and we all miss Elaine immensely! I am riding to help raise money in hopes the pain we have endured becasue of cancer can be saved from hitting another family in the future.

I am also extremely proud to be riding this year with my wife Nicole as part of the Arlington Angels team. This year the team is closing in on hitting the $1 Million mark in total fundraising since they began riding in honor of multiple members of the Arlington community who lost their lives to cancer way to young. One of those people is Caterine Malatesta who lost her battle while in High School. Catherine was a special person who holds a unique place in our family's heart as she was our youngest child, Charlie's first grade CCD teacher. I'm honored to be riding this year with Catherine's parents and brothers on the Arlington Angels team.
