It’s SO Important for Me to Tell My Story. It’s SO Important That You Listen.

Every time I tell the story of Dominic, it helps to keep him real.

It reminds my heart that he lived, that he mattered, that he matters still.

And in the telling, I am giving away a little bit of him for another heart to carry. 

His light is passed to another soul that can pass it to another and another.

  1. I have been reading your stories since I lost my son on January 14, 2016. He was one of the 12 Marines lost in the helicopter crash in Hawaii. You have been very helpful to me over the years. I at one point had attempted to try to tell my story, but didn’t get very far. I really wanted to do it though. I have pages and pages that I have written over the years. I stopped, but started again, then stopped. It is such a hard journey. I am so thankful to have you and others to help me through this, yet sad that we have to share this journey together.
