Hallmark star and Alzheimer’s Association Celebrity Champion, Nikki DeLoach gave a moving and touching speech at the event in honor of her father who is living with a rare form of dementia called, Pick’s Disease. Nikki DeLoach was joined by Netflix’s Team Kaylie star, Eliza Pryor to lead the Promise Garden ceremony, which honored people and their connection to Alzheimer’s by giving them different colored flowers.
Nikki DeLoach shared a brilliant post on her Instagram account of her time at the Alzheimer’s Association Los Angeles Walk. Along with the post, as seen below, she wrote, “WOW. My heart overflows with gratitude, thanks, and love for the tremendous humans that showed up to give their support at The Walk to End Alzheimer’s this weekend. Our Los Angeles team tripled in size!! They had to get up before the sun, in the cold, many of them with their kiddos in tow. This is what community looks like. This is what friendship looks like. This is what it looks like to have a service driven heart. And I cannot believe they are my pals. I am the luckiest. Words can’t even begin to describe my gratitude. Love you all to the stars!”
