Thank You From the Ritzer Family
For the fifth consecutive year, our family was again amazed by the support shown at the Step Up for Colleen 5K Walk/Run. Each year as thousands gather to honor our beloved sister and daughter, Colleen, we witness the passion and energy strengthen her legacy. Not only is Colleen’s legacy strengthened, but through your kindness, we draw strength from each of you.
While these past five years have been extremely difficult without Colleen by our side, it is days and events like the Step Up for Colleen that make the hardest days a little easier to endure. They remind us that no matter how dark the day may get, good will always prevail.
There are no words to express how thankful our family is for those who made the 5th Annual Step Up for Colleen a success. From the race committee to the volunteers to the sponsors and participants, all brought light to our day.
This year proved that rain or shine, the community will always come together to Step Up for Colleen. Thank you for allowing Colleen’s legacy to continue year after year and for supporting the next generation of caring, compassionate teachers.
We hope you will join us again next year for another incredible event. And we ask that you always remember to “be the reason someone smiles” as you never know what someone may be facing.
Thank you again for your continued support of Colleen, our family and the scholarship fund, and please know that your kindness, like Colleen, will always be remembered.
Sincerely,
The Ritzer Family
