The Linda & Keith Wellness Fund

Advancing Diabetes Awareness & Family Leadership Nationwide

 

Two siblings. One family. An enduring legacy of faith, courage, and purpose.

The Linda & Keith Wellness Fund was born from the lives — and lasting love — of Linda and Keith Pedescleaux, whose strength continues to light a path for families across the nation.

​

Linda’s Story

When Type 2 diabetes led to Calciphylaxis, a rare and excruciating condition, Linda Pedescleaux faced unthinkable pain with unshakable faith.

​

Her son, André Farr, never left her side. Every day, he sat with her in the hospital — praying, listening, and promising to honor her words. In their final conversations, Linda made a personal plea: “Take action. Help others understand. Make sure no family suffers like ours.”

​

Before her passing in 2023, that moment became the heartbeat of a movement — transforming one mother’s wish into a national mission of healing, education, and hope.

​

Keith’s Story

Her brother Keith Pedescleaux, who passed in 2020, lived with Type 1 diabetes — a lifelong battle that tested his body but never his spirit. Through discipline, humor, and faith, he showed what true courage looks like: quiet, consistent, and full of grace.

​

Together, their lives remind us that leadership begins with love — and that every act of compassion can ripple across generations.

​

Our Mission

The Linda & Keith Wellness Fund advances Farr’s Best’s commitment to faith, accountability, and wellness by:

• Educating families on diabetes prevention, management, and early detection.

• Empowering communities through leadership workshops, health screenings, and lifestyle initiatives.

• Elevating awareness through advocacy, storytelling, and research that humanize the fight against diabetes.

Every contribution transforms awareness into action — delivering knowledge, faith, and resources directly to the families who need them most.

​

Why Their Legacy Matters

More than 38 million Americans live with diabetes, and millions more are at risk. The financial burden exceeds $400 billion annually, but the greatest cost is measured in moments lost — the birthdays missed, the dreams deferred, the families forever changed.

​

The Linda & Keith Wellness Fund turns that pain into purpose — transforming loss into leadership, and memory into movement.

​

This is not just about treatment. It’s about transformation — building healthier families, stronger communities, and a future where faith and wellness walk hand in hand.
