Event Description

Walk, Run or Bike virtually to show your support to the O’Brien family.

Registration fees will benefit John and Jeanmarie O’Brien and their family of three children - Joe and Jack (who are in college) and Hannah (who is a high school student). John, known to his dear friends as OB, is suffering with Glioblastoma, a very aggressive brain cancer.  Unable to work, John is home with Jeanmarie who is working tirelessly to provide him with round-the-clock care.  As friends of the family and colleagues of Jeanmarie and Joe, we hope that our efforts will ease some of the financial worries of mounting household, educational, and medical bills. 

For those wondering, “Words with Friends” is a favorite OB pastime thus inspiring the beautiful T-shirt logo. This virtual Walk, Run, Ride is to be held in honor of the courageous O’Brien family.  Thank you for participating.
