Episode 53: Connor's Cuddles

Published in Member Communities on May 05, 2020

Recently we interviewed Christine Strutt, VGM Member and Founder of Connor’s Cuddles. Connor’s Cuddles is an organization that honors Strutt’s late son, Connor, who passed away from Non-Hodgkin’s T-cell lymphoma. Since Connor’s passing, Strutt spreads smiles on behalf of Connor’s name. She has not only seen the real strength of those she serves but shines bright with courage and bravery herself. Her work, alongside her son Connor’s legacy and the fearlessness of those she serves, is the true definition of character and is a source of inspiration for our personal abilities to serve others within the HME profession.
