Jackson County Heart Walk | A Note of Thanks

Thank you to every shipbuilder who volunteered, walked or donated in support of this year’s Jackson County Heart Walk. Your commitment helps advance the life‑saving research and resources that make a real difference for families in our community and across our shipyard. 

For my family, this cause is personal. My son Jack is here today because of research and organizations funded by the American Heart Association. His story is just one reminder of how the dollars raised at this event becomes the breakthroughs that save lives tomorrow. 

I’m grateful for your generosity, your time and your heart. Thank you for showing what it means to stand together and support a mission that touches so many lives, including my own.
