The Forrest Spence 5K is tomorrow! I hope you will all join us or have signed up to be a ghost runner to support Brittany and David Spence and this wonderful cause. You can read more about the Forrest Spence Fund on the right side of my blog, or go to the FSF website: http://www.forrestspencefund.com/

Life on the Mississippi

The Forrest Spence Fund

Brittany and David Spence are an amazing couple. They had their beautiful son, Robert Forrest Spence, in September of 2007. Sadly, due to an infection, Forrest lived only 55 days. To honor their son's life and the impact he had on so many people, Brittany and David have created the Forrest Spence Fund. The mission of the Forrest Spence Fund is to assist with the non-medical needs of critically and chronically ill children and their families throughout the Mid-South.

Brittany and David are a truly inspirational couple who have taken the heartbreak they have experienced from losing their son and have found a way to give back to a hospital that fought for Forrest and to reach out to families who are going through a similar experience.

Please check out the Forrest Spence Fund website listed above and consider a donation or consider participating in the 4th annual Forrest Spence 5k, 8:00am, Aug. 27th, 2011, at Overton Park. If you will not be in Memphis on August 27th or do not live here, you can still participate by being a "ghost runner" or by making a monetary donation.
