Hi friends, I'm sorry for my absence. We are in Austin, Texas right now, grieving the loss of a loved one.

He was a beautiful soul. Old and wise beyond his years - he passed too soon. Too soon for us, anyway.

He was one of those rare people you meet who really "gets it". He understood how to live in the present moment, embrace the now and cherish the things that mattered the most. A musician at heart, he was full of spirit, kindness and a gentle nature that touched everyone he encountered. Today, many tears were shed but laughter and music ruled the day, because he was present - lifting up those who mourned, soothing those in pain and encouraging a giggle over the many stories shared.

We will miss you B. May we learn to live life at your pace.

xo,
