Description:

New Name, New Venue...... Same Great Cause!

The "8th Annual" A Life to Remember 5K, formerly known as the Turtle Trek is set each year in September. The race, hosted by the Richard Lambert Foundation is a fundraiser to benefit adults and children in our community who have suffered the death of a loved one, by providing free grief support programs and low-cost counseling services.

Among the participants, many of whom will be honoring the memory of a loved one, will be the Chavez/Lambert family. Richard Lambert passed away unexpectedly at the age of 26 on September 4, 2012. Richard Lambert Foundation Family Grief & Healing Center began when parents, Susan and Jaime Chavez, identified the need for grief support services during their own struggle to understand and cope with the heartbreaking death of their son. 

Join us in remembrance of your loved one or to support those struggling through their loss. The event is a wonderful reflection of coming together for one purpose, in honoring our loved ones.

Walkers, strollers, and people of all ages are welcome!

Our hope is that you have a great experience and will come back to race with us again.

Thank you for supporting us in furthering our mission of providing care, support, and essential resources to bereaved children and adults, allowing them to create a foundation for hope, healing, and survival.
