For the third year, I will be participating in Greta’s Run/Memory Walk to support a charity that means so much to me - Imagine, A Center for Coping with Loss. By now, many of you know our story and how we tragically lost Kevin on August 4, 2023. I am so grateful for Imagine and the community that has helped support me through such an unimaginable loss.
For the past two years, I have been honored to be a top fundraiser thanks to the generosity of my family, friends, and work colleagues. This year, I hope to do even more for this incredible organization.
Please consider supporting my family and honoring Kevin by making a donation or walking with us.

Imagine is a growing and evolving organization, that began in Westfield, NJ, and serves families from over 57 towns in NJ. Imagine provides free, year-round grief support for children and families coping with loss due to death. In addition to providing grief support at its two centers in Mountainside and Newark, Imagine provides grief education and training to schools, agencies, and workplaces, and on-site support after any traumatic loss.
Greta’s Run was founded in memory of Greta Schoenemann, a Westfield High School freshman, who died from injuries sustained after a tree branch fell on her and her classmates during lunch. Her story, and the stories of many more loved ones we’ve lost too soon, are part of what makes Greta’s Run for Imagine so special.
It costs Imagine $2,000 per year to support one child and $5,000 to support an entire family with free, year-round grief support. When you donate to our team, you are directly helping Imagine provide critical services to children, teens, and adults coping with the death of a parent, sibling, or child.
Your support ensures that no family has to navigate grief alone. With your generosity, Imagine can continue transforming grief and loss into resilience, empathy, and compassion for the more than 600 children and adults served annually.
