It’s your birthday today… twice according to my phone. I could get all mushy and go on and on about how important your friendship is to all of us or what you mean to us all but I don’t think you’re into feelings that much so I just need to ask… “Are there hundreds of rubber ducks in your bag sir?” Happy Birthday! CBL here we come! 🐤🐤🐤🐤

$10/10/2025 - Today would have been the day I called my dad to celebrate 15 years since he drove me cross country from MA to CA. We landed in Venice beach on 10/10/2010. My heart is broken that I can’t make that phone call. On October 1st, our lives changed forever. My father and younger brother, Dave, were in a horrific accident while hunting on a remote mountain in Alaska. My father was killed and my brother severely injured. The third photo shows the last time I hugged him. I’m so grateful to Cassy’s mom for capturing that moment. My father slipped while making his way down a steep portion of the mountain. As he tumbled, he headed straight for a cliff. My brother threw himself in front of my dad’s body to stop him - but they both fell over the ledge. Miraculously, my brother survived the 200 foot fall, but had serious injuries: lacerations everywhere, abdominal bleeding, a right shoulder fully out of its socket with every tendon and ligament in it torn, a torn right bicep, four fractured vertebrae, and multiple broken ribs. He was able to use Siri to call 911 from his shattered phone that was somehow still in his pocket. He was told the helicopter may take 6 hours…My brother slid down another hundred yards to where my father was. It was clear he had hit his head. He wasn’t breathing and didn’t have a pulse. Dave performed CPR for three hour until the rescue helicopter came. My dad was pronounced dead upon arrival to the hospital. My brother Dave does not have health insurance. My father did not have life insurance. Humbly, we are seeking funds to help pay for Dave’s hospital bills, upcoming shoulder surgery, physical therapy, funeral/service costs, and financial assistance for my mother over the coming months as she navigates her new reality without her husband of 41 years. I assure you that the decision to ask for assistance was not arrived upon lightly. If it were up to my mom and my brother, we’d figure it out on our own. This was my call, and I promise you, we have no choice. No donation is too small. Any contribution helps and will be met with an appreciation beyond my ability to express here in text. The link is in my bio.$
