JenIt's been a rough couple of weeks.
A friend of mine, and of so many, died in a car accident at the end of March. It all happened blocks away from my apartment, and I drive past the accident site all too often.
Keoni was introduced to me through my dear friend, Mike, and on that first day I met him, he showed such an interest in me, my career and my life that few strangers care to do. As it was said at his memorial service, he was your best friend from the second he met you - and I think this was true.
If you're interested, you can
donate money to his memorial fund. The proceeds will go to either the
Surf Rider Foundation or
PATH. He was such a wonderful person, and he is greatly missed.
