My son Michael B, his wife Pamela, and daughter Alyssa lost a much beloved son this past month in a tragic accident. As posted previously, his community and professional friends, and Nick's friends, have gone on to honor him in some amazing ways to ensure his memory and legacy live on through his spirit.
To renew my faith in humanity, Mike's coworkers got together while the family was away for the week. The plants and paving stones from Nick's garden were gathered up, then along with new plants and trees, more pavers, a pergola, and a memory .. they surprised them with this to come home to:
I cannot even begin to express how I felt at this outpouring of support to my son's family, and the love they showed in honoring my grandson. They, too, knew Nick well, and did #WWND Thank you to all of you for this selfless act of kindness in making Nick's Memorial Garden!!!!
My gratitude to these selfless people contributing to this beautiful area of comfort for my grandson's parents is boundless.

Brian's Tattoo, my eldest son While these awesome folks created this memorial garden, Mike's family did #WWND. They had planned a trip to Pensacola prior to the tragedy, and after a week's delay, the went on this trip. Nick was born in Pensacola, and the Blue's Angels do a fly over show up there this time each year, and this became a family tradition to go up, visit friends and family, and make some new memories as well as honor his life. |
