Ann Samuelson

Ann Samuelson, ADAO Oregon Representative

In 1982 my father, Stan “Swede” Grimberg died of mesothelioma, and I would never be the same, justice knows no timeline.  With excellent medical care and his fighting spirit, my father lived a painful 18 months. He wanted to know his granddaughter, but he left us 6 days before her first birthday.  I was introduced to the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO) three years ago, and I now have a place to turn my anger into action. I am dedicated to this organization doing its vital and important work.  To do that work, it takes leadership, volunteers, and money.

Join us in honoring those we have lost, and those who are still fighting, for their lives. When we make an ADAO family tribute program donation or register for the ADAO 9th Annual Asbestos Awareness Conference,  “The Asbestos Crisis: New Trends in Prevention and Treatment” to be held on March 22 – March 24 in Washington, D.C. you are supporting advocacy, education, and outreach.

My heart soars as I honor my Dad, he is not forgotten, he would be proud…. Ann
