💙 A Riveon Reflection
This weekend, I had the honor of attending the **1st Annual McKenna Memorial Ride**, held in memory of Brandon O’Delle McKenna.
I am so grateful to Brandon’s family and friends for inviting me to spend the day with them. It was a beautiful reminder of how much one person can mean to so many people.
Throughout the day, I had the privilege of listening to stories about Brandon; stories that showed just how caring, supportive, and funny he was. I witnessed moments of tears, laughter, and hugs between family and friends. There was sadness in missing him, but there was also so much love in remembering him.
I am especially thankful that Brandon’s loved ones chose to bring awareness to mental health and su***de prevention and to support the work Riveon Healthcare does in our community. These conversations matter. They can help reduce stigma, remind people they are not alone, and, most importantly, encourage someone to reach out for help.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of such a meaningful day and for trusting me to share in Brandon’s memory. 💙
If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available.
You can call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.
You don't have to have the right words. Just reaching out is enough.
