The Showcats are saddened to hear the news that Eunice Kennedy Shriver (founder of Special Olympics) has passed away at the age of 88. Her legacy as a wife, mother, grandmother, as well as a tireless advocate for people all over the world with intellectual disabilities will live on in our hearts. Her vision and inspiration enabled the Special Olympics movement (which has allowed millions of people around the world) to participate in an enviornment of inclusion & acceptance. All of us in our Showcat family send our thoughts and prayers to her family during this time. | |
