Wendy Adelson

Mother of USMC Cpl. Daegan Page

Blanketed by support from the Omaha community and the nation, Wendy Adelson, Gold Star Mother of United States Marine Cpl Daegan Page, knew she had to create good from the worst event of her life, and the concept of doing things the Dae Way was formed. Propelled by a passion to keep her son's memory and sacrifice alive by paying it forward to others, Wendy in collaboration with other family members founded the Cpl Daegan Page Foundation.

Wendy's life has centered around raising her sons, volunteering for youth, religious and community organizations and a career spanning across non-profit work, pharmacy work and over 20 years focused on business process and client experience. Wendy and her husband Craig are long time Midwesterners who enjoy experiencing the worlds wonders with their two rescue dogs and good people.
