The Calm Throughout Life's Storms

Tamra Cantore Since the initial printing of this book, the storms in Tamra's life have continued while her focus on the One who keeps her calm has helped her maintain a positive spirit. Tamra is now in her 11th year of Young Onset Parkinson's and is a single mom raising two special needs children. As the physical deterioration of her condition continues to be a part of her daily life, Tamra has found new ways to exponentially increase getting research funding into the hands of scientists to find a cure for this impartial, inhumane disease. Through a mutual friend, in God's perfect timing, Tamra met one of Nashville's most prolific and well respected songwriters, who offered to do a Parkinson's fundraiser for Tamra. Thus the "Countrified Rock for Research" fundraiser featuring Jeffrey Steele was created. Planning is now under way for "Team Cantore¿s" 6th annual concert fundraiser. With the addition of the concert series of fundraisers and the tremendous support of family, friends, and colleagues from her 24 years in the telecommunications industry, Team Cantore has contributed just over $400,000 - 100% of which has gone directly to fund Parkinson's research (www.unitywalk.org).
