Frank – “I have ALS, I’m in a wheelchair and I can’t walk. I just want to say how grateful I am and thank you so much for the rides. They have made me independent and able to go to my doctor and most importantly physical therapy, which keeps my muscles working. I don’t know what I’d do without you. I would not be in the shape I’m in if I didn’t have you people.”
