My brother in law was murdered in June. Words can not describe just how bad the last five have been.he was 20 years old and his body has yet to be found. His parents have dipped into retirement funds borrowed against their house trying to locate his remains.hiring planes buying boats among other things and needles to say it has taken a massive toll on them.
Tonight at a bar on 17th s.e a fundraiser was held in Hope's to alleviate some of those expenses. It was overwhelming. The generosity of the people of our city never ceases to amaze me and tonight I had a front row ticket to it. For the first time in a long time I had a genuine smile on my face and it was all thanks to friends and family and ton of strangers. I am still in awe.
