    In addition to Mike’s wonderfully organized list, I wanted to add that the Chase account is up and running. At one point, people were having trouble donating. The official name is the: Gabriel Jordan Trust Fund Donation Account.

    Can’t wait to hear about Recess! Love, Aunt Andi

    Hey Gabe & Brooke! It was so great to see you today! I really enjoyed meeting the family too! Mike and I had a great visit while on prime and paint detail in the basement hallway! ;) I’m looking forward to when it opens and we can all have some amazing food and a glass of ridiculously good wine together! That will be a great day! Call Jake and I next week to help out with the move or with Ezra while you’re moving…

    Love you both!

    IIIIIIII love Recess! I believe that was a song if I recall correctly from Josh’s younger years. It is so wonderful to read how all of you folks in Indy are helping out Gabe, Brooke, and Ezra during what surely is the most challenging time of their lives. Hoosier Hospitality has taken on a deeper meaning than one could ever guess. I am in awe up here in Maine of how you all are hanging in there together and supporting this young couple who truly are deserving of only good in their lives. I can’t imagine how grateful they feel to know that they are not alone during their time of deepest need. Thank you everyone for being there for them. Brooke and Gabe – you two keep on, keepin’ on. You’re young, strong, and very loved, and have a little boy with a bright future. You are facing life and moving forward… you are my heroes.
    Love, Aunty Terri, Jeff and Joshua
