Walk for Suicide Prevention
Posted by Glynn Wilson in Class Member Updates on October 26th, 2009
A Letter From Rachel Caddell
Dear Erwin alumni friends,
I registered for but missed our 30 year class reunion, which was held shortly after we lost my son, Brian McCormick, to suicide on August 2, 2006.
I would be honored if you would walk with me in the Alabama Walk for Suicide Prevention, Nov. 8, at Heardmont Park, North Shelby County, whether you donate to this cause or not.
I have a personal fund-raising goal, along with a team goal. The team name is “Brian McCormick Family and Friends.”
Even more important than supporting this foundation financially, I would encourage us to reach out to others at all times in love and openness in the hopes we might assist in bringing them “out of the darkness” that can at times overwhelm others, and even us. I am blessed with wonderful family and friends who have and continue to be my angels of light.
With all my love and in loving memory of Brian.
Rachel
I will walk in remembrance of my son Brian McCormick who we lost to suicide on August 2, 2006.
