Walking with Kyle's Crusaders

WDVM HAGERSTOWN, Md. - Wendy Addington lost her 16-year-old son, Kyle, to acute myeloid leukemia almost four years ago. But she's using his memory in her aim to conquer childhood cancer through "Kyle's Crusaders," and is getting ready for the group's fourth annual walk on October 7 in Mt. Airy.

Addington Part of Fabric of Oakdale Wrestling

Very proud to be part of the Oakdale Bears Wrestling family and touched by this February 4, 2016 article in the Frederick News Post about Kyle. Our family has fallen in love with wrestling and we get energy from being around the boys (who are serious on the mat and silly off -- like Kyle). So grateful for the outpouring of support we have received.
