2024 Walk ALS Georgia

Chris's Warriors

Hello!

 

Thank you for visiting our team's 2024 Walk ALS Georgia fundraising page. We are looking forward to walking united for a cure on Walk Day and hope you will join us as we walk in memory of our father and friend, Chris Lambert. 

 

Christopher George Lambert
June 5, 1971 – September 10, 2024

Christopher (Chris) George Lambert of LaGrange, GA passed away on Tuesday, September 10, 2024 after a battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig Disease). He was born to the late George and Sara Lambert.

Chris was a graduate of Troup High School. He also graduated from University of Phoenix with double Masters in Business Administration.

Chris never met a stranger. He was always happy and could quickly bring a smile to your face. His greatest accomplish and joy was his 5 beautiful children. Even while enduring the ravages of ALS he found a way to be a part of their lives. His last outing was skating with his 2 youngest children. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents George and Sara Lambert.

He is survived by his children, Maigen Lambert, Grayson (Catherine) Lambert, Macie Lambert, Ethan Lambert and Sophi Lambert and many other close family members and friends.

There will be a Celebration of Life service on Monday, September 16, 2024 at 6:00 pm at Callaway Baptist Church located at 310 John Lovelace Road, LaGrange, GA. Rev. Brad Thompson and Rev. Brandon Brooks will be officiating.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to ALS United of Georgia

 

 

Every 90 minutes. That’s how often someone learns they’ve been diagnosed with ALS. In that moment, their life is changed forever. And from that moment on, they are left to navigate an unknown future - a future living with ALS. 

 

Every 90 minutes. That’s how often someone living with ALS loses his battle because there is no cure for this disease.

 

We are walking so Georgians living with ALS can get the support they need to live a full life post-diagnosis. It costs on average $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need. Walk ALS Georgia raises money to provide local care services like direct financial support, respite care, transportation services, and equipment loans to help alleviate that cost for families in Georgia.

 

We are also walking to support research efforts into treatments and a cure so that an ALS diagnosis is not fatal. Until that day, we will walk on. Join us!
