Our Story

The Timothy French Cardiac Amyloidosis Foundation was established in loving memory of Timothy French, Sr.—a devoted family man whose greatest joy in life was caring for those he loved.

Timothy was the kind of person who always put others before himself. Whether it was family, friends, or anyone in need, he was always there with a helping hand, a listening ear, and unwavering support. He believed in taking care of the people around him and worked hard to ensure his family was loved, protected, and provided for. His strength, generosity, and selflessness left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.

When Timothy was diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis, he faced the disease with remarkable courage and grace. Rather than keeping his diagnosis private, he wanted others to understand what he was experiencing. He openly shared his journey in hopes of educating others and bringing awareness to a disease that many people had never heard of. Through every challenge, he remained positive and resilient. He never complained about what he was facing, choosing instead to focus on helping others understand the reality of living with cardiac amyloidosis.

The creation of The Timothy French Cardiac Amyloidosis Foundation is rooted in his legacy and inspired by his determination to help others. During Timothy's journey, our family learned firsthand how little awareness and education existed about this disease. We often found ourselves searching for information, answers, and resources that were difficult to find.

No family should have to face that uncertainty alone.

Our foundation was created to shine a light on cardiac amyloidosis, increase public awareness, support patients and caregivers, and advocate for earlier diagnosis and improved treatment options. Through education, outreach, and community support, we hope to ensure that no one remains in the dark about this disease.

Today, we honor Timothy's life by continuing the work he began—sharing knowledge, inspiring hope, and helping others navigate their own journeys with strength and dignity.

His legacy lives on through every life we touch and every step we take toward a future where cardiac amyloidosis is better understood, diagnosed earlier, and treated more effectively.

Advancing Awareness. Inspiring Hope. Improving Lives.

To honor the life of Timothy French, Sr., The Timothy French Cardiac Amyloidosis Foundation is dedicated to increasing awareness of cardiac amyloidosis, supporting patients and families, and advancing research that brings earlier diagnosis, better treatment, and hope to future generations.

A future where every person affected by cardiac amyloidosis receives an early diagnosis, access to effective treatment, and the support needed to live with dignity and hope.
