Bob DiPasquale, President & Founder

Bob is a two time surviving kid himself and the one inspired to start Memories For Surviving Kids. The combination of the misfortune of both Bob’s parents dying by the time he was eleven, and the skilled  IT professional and communicator he became, is the recipe of the effort found here on these pages.

Married with two adult children, Bob is deeply committed to supporting families in need. In his free time, he enjoys golf and exploring the vibrant offerings of Austin, Texas.

With a genuine desire to bring joy into the lives of others, Peg’s motivation to help MFSK succeed stems from her belief that every child deserves the opportunity to connect with their deceased parents. Guided by her faith and a zest for life, she approaches her role with infectious enthusiasm, inspiring hope and healing in the hearts of those who have experienced parental loss.

Alan Aguais, Secretary & Project Lead

 

Retired in early 2023, Alan has had a memorable career in Technology. He has an MS in Financial Management, a BS in Business Administration, and he brings his 20+ years or Project Management experience to the MFSK Board.

 Alan lost his dad when he was only seven years old. Later in life he was able to connect with several of his dad’s old University Buddies in the spirit of MFSK! It was a most rewarding experience and since then Alan has made it a priority to make both financial and time commitments to MFSK personally understanding the value of the MFSK Mission. 

 Alan has three grown children all working in great careers and all financially independent. In his spare-time he is working on a waterfront fixer-upper property at Lake Limestone, loves to play golf with his Bogey Buddies every Saturday, garden, fish, and handyman help family and friends with projects around their homes. He enjoys travelling with his BFF Paula and visits with his Aunt and Uncle (both in their mid-90’s) in Tampa several times a year.

 Alan joined the MFSK Board of Directors in 2022 and has been a strong supporter for many years. .
