Masters of Ceremonies, Microsoft senior director Mike Egan and KING TV sports reporter/anchor Chris Egan then spoke about the loss of their brother to substance use disorder. While devastating, the experience illuminated the importance of having care and support services close to home. Chris also expressed gratitude for those on the front line.
“People are going through tough times, and we need the hospitals and the people who run them more than ever,” Egan says. “Let’s let these doctors and nurses and everybody know how much we love them and thank them for all their support.”
