Black Swamp Walk to End Alzheimer’s

Attorney Daniel R. Michel lead the way as the chair of the 2022 Black Swamp Walk to End Alzheimer’s and guided the community in their efforts of raising money for support, care, and research of Alzheimer’s .

Dan’s passion for the cause comes from the impact  Alzheimer’s  had on Rodney Arthur, the founder of Arthur Law Firm. Rod was one of Dan’s early mentors and a force in the Northwest Ohio legal community. Dan states “A few years after I joined the firm, Rod began to show signs of Alzheimer’s, which quickly forced his retirement from the practice of law. Before that, Rod had successfully resolved many significant legal matters using the force of his intellect and his charismatic style. Alzheimer’s robbed Rod of those things and robbed his family of an amazing father and husband. Through my participation in the Alzheimer’s Walk, I am hopeful that research dollars will result in effective treatments and provide much-needed support for our local families.”

The event raises money for the Alzheimer’s Association of NWO Chapter and provides educational programs, care consultations and support services to local families free of charge.

Alzheimer’s disease is a leading cause of death in the United States and kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. Additionally, more than 11 million family members and friends provide unpaid care to people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which helps all affected, is the world’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research.

 

The attorneys and staff of Arthur Law Firm are proud to invest and support the Alzheimer’s Association of NWO.  It is a great privilege to give directly to the communities we serve and support a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. Attorney Michel looks forward to leading the community in 2023.
