Mokena's Front Porch

Send us a text

Frank and Cyndi Grobmeier endured the unthinkable after the death of their daughter just after her 18th birthday. I had the opportunity to spend time with them in the Mokena office of their charity, The Maddog Strong Foundation. They have a mission to not only have people sign their donor card but to also have the conversation with loved ones as well.
They so graciously shared, at length, the story of their family before and after the loss of their daughter and what they have done and are doing to make something amazing out of their tragedy. This is a special episode and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed talking to Frank and Cyndi. Please be sure to check out their website, www.maddogstrong.org , they are also on Facebook, X, Instagram, and YouTube! You can register for their 5k, Miles For Maddog, HERE.
