About This Event

Former MN State Representative Tracy Beckman retired early to become a full time caregiver for his wife, Janel, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. In the middle of his caregiving journey, his family took over his duties, giving him the time for a 60 day, 1,600 mile solo bike trip to Maine that gave him a new perspective on life. Tracy has been instrumental in leading several Alzheimer’s caregivers support groups.
