When Kim Rodenberg contacted us,with a wish nomination, we were uncertain if we could pull it off. She informed us that Bobbie was planning her own funeral. She was asking that Bon Jovi play for it. We were unable to get a response from Jon Bon Jovi. So, we pivoted.
We decided to throw a celebration of life for her. We wanted her to be in attendance. We surprised her with Douglas Keith Shepard. He is the world traveling front man for Crush, The Bon Jovi Concert Experience. (He is such an amazing human) He offered to travel to us, in order to help us provide an unforgettable day for this special lady. Here are just a few tender moments from today. If you listen closely, you can hear her sing every single word. Our hearts are so full tonight.
It is with your help that we are able to provide memories like this. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
