Sheryl Hall. 11/01/60-03/06/20
Sheryl Hall was only 59 when CJD took her from us. Sheryl was a Physical Education and Health teacher in the Springfield Public Schools for over 20 years. She was named Elementary School Teacher of the Year, was president of her state organization, MAHPERD, and garnered the love and respect of her colleagues, students, and community. Most importantly Sheryl was a loyal friend to many, beloved mother to Jon and Tim, sister, cousin, favorite auntie, and the love of my life. With current slashes in funding for research into rare diseases such as CJD, it is more critical than ever that we continue our commitment to raising money for treatment and ultimately a cure for this cruel and unforgiving disease. Please join us on October 3 to walk in solidarity with others who have lost someone to CJD. Breakheart Reservation is a beautiful venue for this fun and meaningful event. If you can't join us, please register, donate, get a t-shirt and wear it proudly that day.
A thousand thanks.

About Strides for CJD
Strides for CJD is an annual walk/run to raise awareness of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. Through this event, anyone -- anywhere -- can pay tribute to their loved ones and raise funds for the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.
Funds raised support our programs including:
- Our 24/7 helpline, support groups, conference, and other family programs throughout the year.
- Research grants to help scientists make important discoveries and bring us closer to a cure.
- Medical education to help raise awareness and understanding of prion disease.
