Tom Walsh's Treatment Fund

When I think of Tom Walsh there are a few things that come right to mind. First and foremost, he is a family man; a loving husband and father. If you spend any time with the Walsh family, it is easy to see that his children, Kiera, Kyle and Kelsie, truly think the world of him. 


Tom is also a die hard Penn State fan.  For years he has supported Penn State's efforts to raise money for the Four Diamonds Fund which provides treatment for children suffering from pediatric cancer. All three of his children were involved in THON during their time at Penn State, and Tom would never miss a trip to Happy Valley to support these efforts. In addition to these visits to Penn State for THON, he lives life by the "YOLO" moto, and tends to enjoy tailgating weekends for Penn State football, as well.   

Tom is also a man of faith, a community man, and the guy that would always be willing to help someone in need. 


In March of 2015, Tom received some news that would truly turn his world upside down. He was diagnosed with Stage 3 Pancreatic Cancer. With treatment underway, there have already been numerous hotel stays in NYC to allow the family to be close to Tom during treatment. The medical bills are also sure to follow. Anyone that has been sick, or has been close to someone who has fought a serious disease, knows that a serious illness can put a great financial strain on a family, and right now Tom needs to focus on getting well, rather than being concerned about finances. 



Tom has so much to live for. He is looking forward to celebrating his 32nd wedding anniversary with his wife, Carrie, in November. He is excited to walk his oldest daughter, Kiera, down the aisle to be married in July of 2016. He is anxiously awaiting a family reunion with over 52 family members in August of 2015. He has such a zest for life, and has much more life to live. 

I would ask that if you are able, to please make a donation to support his efforts to get well. No donation is too small, and prayers for healing are also appreciated. 

Thanks, and God Bless.
