Personal note from Leigh Jackson

Hello, Dear Friends,

Thank you for your loving support over these past months.

You helped us so much by sharing photographs, music and memories on the Ever Loved website; by reaching out, checking in, and holding us close as we navigated – and continue to navigate – our own shock and grief; by contributing so generously to Grant’s memorial; and by joining us and more than 300 friends in New York City or via Zoom on August 9 to celebrate Grant’s humor, brilliance, and creativity.

We have decided not to hold a second memorial event. The first one was gorgeous – thanks to the many friends who organized it – and wrenching. Instead, we hope you will continue to gather in Grant’s spirit with a party, a laugh, and a really good story.

It’s been wonderful to talk to the many people who were important to Grant and to meet those of you whom we had not met before. Please stay in touch as we figure out next steps for honoring our beloved son and brother – and also because we enjoy your company.

With much love and gratitude,

Leigh Jackson
