This foundation will be used to supplement secondary education to youth with scleroderma or their siblings. Our middle daughter Anna was a ray of sunshine for 13 years 8 months and 8 days on this Earth. She was taken very suddenly by Covid-19 in July of 2020. Anna had CREST syndrome which is an autoimmune disease also known as scleroderma. She was a dancer at a local dance studio, and loved hip ho
p and tap dance. She was considering taking on jazz as well. She was extremely funny and outspoken. Afterall she had to leave her mark on all who met her before she left this world! She loved to draw, paint, and create storylines for movies. Anna also had an extremely kind and compassionate side to her. She was always the first child to make sure everyone felt included in every activity going on and that everyone had a friend. She, being a military child, knew what it was like to be the new kid and never wanted anyone to feel out of place. We miss her dearly and want to make sure everyone knows who she is just like she always wanted! Our family decided to create an non profit organization to benefit other youth like her and their siblings who are pursuing college or technical education. Our goal is to provide at least 3 small scholarships a year to be used as the youth needs to reach their dreams!
