Each year Chad’s family gathers to honor his father…Donald Dobbelaere…by walking in the Minneapolis Lymophonathon 5K. Don passed away on October 1, 1996 from leukemia. To this very day his children speak of him very highly and love sharing stories of their “dad.” I never received the opportunity to meet Don, but feel as though I know him from their stories. A piece of Don was left to Chad, as many of Chad’s actions are those of Dons…it’s as though he wanted his legacy to live on.
During Don’s chemo sessions he would often listen to the Eagles song, “Get Over It.” Today we ask you to consider making a donation so we can one day find a cure and Get Over It.
