Stay in Step
2023 DC Golf for Betterment Recipient
Romy Camargo joined the US Army to serve and protect the country he
loves, following in the footsteps of his older brothers. He was nearly killed
in a military action in Afghanistan. He is a quadriplegic from the US
Army, Airborne Ranger / Special Forces Green Beret, 100% wounded
warrior. After he survived his "life changing" injuries, he needed to drive
to Orlando from Tampa about a 2½ hour drive EACH WAY, to get needed
therapy. He and his wife, Gaby, decided to create and open a brain and
spinal cord injury recovery center in their hometown of Tampa, to service
the large contingent of military personnel located in the area. In 2015,
they opened the doors to Stay in Step. Romy personifies the "never give
up, never give in, never say die" attitude despite his state of disability. He
is an inspiration to all that have the honor of knowing him. Funds raised
at the 2023 Golf for Betterment tournament helped with expenses that patients and their
family incur that are not covered by insurance.
