The American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women luncheon was last week, and thanks to my amazing company, Century 21 Affiliated, who sponsored the event, a group of us were able to attend. I was especially grateful to bring two of Nate’s three sisters with me.
This event is centered around heart health awareness — and these three sisters know all too well the devastating effects of heart disease. In 2010, their dad, Jeff, passed away from this disease at just 58 years old. Then in 2023, their brother Nathan was taken from us far too soon at the age of 46.
Each year, the event features someone who shares their personal story about how heart disease has impacted their life. This year, it was a young woman who suffered a heart attack at just 23 years old. Her family has also been deeply affected — her older brother lived with a heart-related illness since birth and passed away from the disease 10 years ago.
Some may call it ironic that this year’s story focused on a sister and her brother. I choose to see it as a sign that I was meant to have two of Nate’s sisters with me at this event this year.
Thank you for continuing to show us you are always with us, Nathan. ❤️
