A walk for Alzheimer’s with Gregory Charles

The Walk for Alzheimer's will be held Sunday, May 27, in Sherbrooke, along with more than 100 Alzheimer Society walks across Canada. This year, the event is gaining momentum with a major ceremony that will highlight well-known Quebec performer Gregory Charles. The ceremony will allow those affected by the disease to come together, and enjoy a moment of respite. Beginning at 1 p.m. participants will be greeted with music by the members of the Florilège choir at Sherbrooke’s Basilica-Cathedral Saint-Michel. At 1:30 p.m. a special ceremony will be held in honor of people with Alzheimer's disease or in memory of a deceased loved one. During the ceremony, participants will hear Charles’ testimony. Both the musician’s parents had Alzheimer's disease. See full story in the Friday, May 25th edition of The Record.
