Oh, Y’all showed up and showed out for Jazzy Deb Day! Thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated the memory of such an important pillar of the community 🕊️.

We danced, our good friends at Mathers helped get ‘Deb Buckets’ out, and Think Outside Da Block made sure we gave Jazzy Deb energy at bingo🥰.

This is Englewood! Showing up, celebrating and holds space for the people who built this community 💚. We’re so grateful for days like this.
