Linda & Jessica Storey will open the night. This show will benefit the Denver Chapter of the National MS Society and CASE for MS. MS, or multiple sclerosis, is a disease that attacks adults in the prime of their lives, typically 20-50 years old. Linda was a full-time musician on the road at the age of 23 when she was diagnosed. MS effects the nervous system, short-circuiting signals indiscriminately. Some famous people with MS include Talk Show host Montel Williams, actress Teri Garr, and country singers Hal Ketchum and Clay Walker. Comedian Richard Pryor also suffered from MS.

Living with MS since 1977, Linda has gone through many changes and has learned much. In addition to finding the cure, there are a lot of laws and attitudes that need to be changed in order for the disabled to have the same rights as all Americans to pursue their dreams. As president of Case for MS, Linda has worked hard with legislation and will continue to work as an advocate for the disabled.

In 2004 Linda received the Advocacy Volunteer of the Year Award from the National MS Society, and in 2005 she was featured in the Wall Street Journal. Along with the board of CASE for MS, she will continue this work and expand. The board includes Linda’s daughter Jessica, a CU graduate, who has lived with Linda’s MS all her life; Alison Zellner, Great West Associate Manager who has MS; and Guy Errickson, former President of the Colorado Music Association and DJ at KGNU whose sister has MS.

Together they will continue to have fundraising concerts, advocate for the disabled, support musicians that have MS, and educate the public through the media and special events.

Case for MS appreciates any support that you can give them. They are in need of sponsors, donations for the silent auction, and publicity. All donations are tax deductible .
