I am Tonya Schmidt
a family member of someone we've lost to ALS
Iowa
My family and I want others impacted by ALS to know they are not alone and we continue to push for a cure.
My courageous mom Susan Fish passed away in 1993 at the age of 41 after a 5 year battle with ALS. My dad, a wonderful caregiver, passed away in 2022. My family and I attended the inaugural Lou Gehrig Day game at Wrigley Field and plan to pick a different MLB park each year to honor Ron and Sue’s memory and raise awareness for ALS. My family and I want others impacted by ALS to know they are not alone and we continue to push for a cure.
Tonya, Tim, Elizabeth, and Gehrig Schmidt
