WHY WE RIDE

Meet Lori Steinagel.

Lori is a member of the Enterprise Fleet Management family; her husband Brandon has been with Enterprise Holdings and Fleet Management for 22 years and counting. Most recently making St Louis their new home in 2021.

In early March 2022, Lori began experiencing what appeared to be symptoms of early-onset menopause. The symptoms worsened and after emergency surgery, multiple tests, a sarcoidosis diagnosis, and a variety of different doctor visits, she finally met with a specialist who looked beyond menopause. A uterine biopsy in mid-November 2022 resulted in the diagnosis of Endometrial Cancer.

The news was heavy for the Steinagel family, they hoped that following an intensive hysterectomy in early December 2022, Lori would be cleared of the disease. Unfortunately, pathology results following the surgery revealed Stage 3 Endometrial Cancer.

While overall survivability of endometrial cancer is fairly high, Stage 3 lowers these percentages from 80+% to 17-30% beyond 5 years.

Due to the uncommon nature of this disease in someone her age, Lori's history, and her health, cancer tends to be more aggressive.

6 cycles of chemotherapy and radiation therapy will hopefully attack and eliminate cancer so Lori can return to being a loving wife, mother, sister, and friend.

Her positive attitude, strong faith, and support of her family continue to fuel her as she fights this disease.

This year we ride for Lori, Brandon, and their children, Kennedi, Taylor, and Carter so they know their Enterprise family is with them and Lori's fight against cancer!
