Richard Bell

There are approximately 40,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts.  My sister, Catherine Elizabeth Bell passed away in 1994 as a sophomore in high school.  Every year my family walks in honor of my sister's life, taken from us at such a young age.

The picture is Cathy Bob and I playing in the pool in our backyard.  Chrissy and Mom are there too, but not pictured.  Dad took this picture in the mid 80s.

Real progress has been made in the search for a cure, but the lives of people with CF are still cut far too short. There still is no cure for this devastating disease. By walking today, I am helping add tomorrows to the lives of people living with cystic fibrosis. Will you join me? Support me by making a donation to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!

Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.

Please support me!
