Remembering Mike deGruy
Details about the crash are incomplete at this point, but news reports suggest some kind of malfunction in the helicopter at take-off.
Capturing the loss of such a great man in words is impossible. We are all shocked and deeply saddened. But knowing Mike, he’d want us to try and shrug it off, laugh as much as possible, and celebrate the incredible life he lived. And what a life it was.
Please join his family and friends from all over the world this Sunday, February 12th for a memorial service in his honor and a celebration of his extraordinary life.
