In loving memory of Cody Dieruf and in honor of her beautiful life, on May 20, 2006, Levi and I are participating in the Denver area GREAT STRIDES WALK. Cody lost her courageous battle with Cystic Fibrosis on April 28, 2005, with her loving family around her. She was born on November 8, 1981 to George and Ginny Dieruf and is Levi's beloved younger sister. The love and happiness Cody so generously shared with her family, friends, and everyone around her will live on forever in our hearts. Her courage, grace, and determination are -- and always will be -- an inspiration. We miss her so much and will never forget her shining personality, loving heart, and beautiful mind.

The GREAT STRIDES walk is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest and most successful national fund-raising event. Please help us meet our fund-raising goal of $5,000.00 by sponsoring us.

For those of you who don't know, Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that causes consistent and life threatening lung infections. CF affects tens of thousands of children and young adults in the United States. Currently there is no cure for CF, but research and care supported by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is making a huge difference in extending the quality of life for those with CF. However, we continue to lose precious lives, like Cody's, to CF every day. That's why your help is needed now more than ever to ensure that a cure is found sooner - rather than later. To learn more about CF and the CF Foundation, visit www.cff.org.

Please forward this link to everyone you know. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those with CF! Thank you for supporting the mission of the CF Foundation and GREAT STRIDES!
