ALS WALK

It was a cool but sunny morning for the Knoxville ALS walk on September 24.  There must have been several hundred people participating in the walk.  I believe the total amount raised was close to $100,000.  Our Family and Friends team raised approximately $800.  The team wore tee shirts with "Walking for Pappaw Knight".  The fact that my book was for sale with proceeds going to the ALS Association was not announced until the end of the event, so I only sold 17 copies.  At least 17 more people can have a better understanding of the havoc caused by this terrible disease.
