Joey Yannucci
It was an ordinary day and an ordinary bus ride home for Joey Yannucci and a group of students from F.K. Sweet Elementary School.

When Ronnie and Justine said, “for better or for worse” in their wedding vows in 2009, they had no idea the challenges they’d face together. They just knew that they would face life together in love, for better or for worse.Two days before Christmas, 2011, Ronnie McClure was given the news nobody ever wants to hear – he was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). A fast-moving and fatal illness, ALS is slowly robbing Ronnie McClure of his ability to walk, speak, and even swallow. It’s a lot for a 35 year-old unemployed father and his beloved bride to handle, but add three children and no health insurance to the mix,...
