MIDLOTHIAN, Va. (WWBT) - According to the ALS Association, the more than 16,000 people across the United States are impacted by the disease. Team Quinn continued its fight against ALS on Monday.
The organization hosted its third annual Team Quinn Fighting ALS Golf Tournament at Brandermill Country Club. 36 teams signed up, with more than 40 volunteers chipping in to make the event a success.
This year’s tournament carried some more emotion, as Bobby Quinn, for whom Team Quinn was founded, passed away on April 27, after a battle with ALS. That didn’t stop his wife, Michele, and her Team Quinn family from continuing with the tournament as planned.
