The only thing greater than his impact on ALS research was his impact on our community. Thank you for your strength and courage under the toughest circumstances. We lost a great soul yesterday, Rest In Peace, Pete.

Our hearts go out to Frates family and Boston community. @PeteFrates3 changed the trajectory of ALS forever and showed the world how to live with a fatal disease. His efforts to lead the Ice Bucket Challenge had a significant impact on the search for treatments and a cure for ALS

As @PeteFrates3's family likes to say, it is Lou Gehrig's disease, but it will be Pete Frates' cure. The world is a better place thanks to Pete and one day, we will strike out ALS, thanks to his efforts. #StrikeOutALS #icebucketchallenge @FratesChallenge @caseysherman123 #WeAreBC
