February 18, 2018  my world ended. My son, Keaton, took his life that day.   

​

My family and friends did everything they could, being there for me in every way they knew how to, while we all grieved. A few months later, a friend asked me to meet a friend of hers that had just lost her son.  Oddly,  her son, Gus, took his life on my son's birthday. 

 

I knew God was giving me a clue to something.....become the support for others that are living this same devastating loss. And, in turn, it has helped me heal.  Our "club" was formed with 5 women and grew to 6.  We are each other's rock, no words have to be spoken, we just know.  Our friendship is a safe place to be -no judgement, no fear to be yourself, to say what you want to say, to be happy, and grieve. 

 

My hope for this day, is for you to find and create friendships like ours. 

​

Marissa, Maxine, Taryn, Rachel, Gina and Kelli - thank you.
