In lieu of flowers a donation can be made in Jorge's memory to: ALS. Every 90 minutes someone is diagnosed with – or dies from – ALS. This fatal disease can strike anyone at any time. It takes away the freedom to walk, to talk, to run and dance. To laugh. To hug. To eat. To breathe. We fight to give that independence back – and help empower people to live life to the fullest. The ALS Association leads the way in global research and helps 20,000 Americans living with ALS. Your gift today will help find a cure for ALS, while providing care and support to families right here in your community.
