Bernie and Phyl have been active supporters of the National MS Society for over ten years, and Phyllis was awarded the Hope Award at MileStones in 2010 in recognition of the inspiring life she has led despite battling MS for 50 years.

Phyllis has led a an inspiring life despite the challenges that MS has presented. The National MS Society has made considerable progress in finding a cure and establishing many drug therapies over the last 75 years, and Phyllis is a shining representation that MS does not dictate your life. In honor of Bernie's recent passing last April and Phyl's contribution to the progress we have made as an organization, we present them with this award.
