Everyone feels lonely sometimes. But for many people with Down syndrome and other intellectual disabilities, loneliness is a more common and painful experience. Their families can feel lonely too, and feel cut off from support.
Two decades ago, we were introduced to Julia, the beautiful daughter of Jim and Danielle Marks. Since that time, our lodge has not only watched her grow into an amazing young woman, we have been big supporters of the Down Syndrome Association of Wisconsin - Fox Cities. Today, on this World Down Syndrome Day, we celebrate with all of those families and those that love them.
