To my three young kings, I'm eternally grateful for you. Thank you for being the light to the world. You all will continue to shine your lights bright before us in the days ahead. To the families, we love your sons. We love your sons. The theme we chose for this year's Lighting of the Lawn is LOTL Full Power. LOTL Full Power reminds us that it is only together as a community that we can have our full power. And that is the full power to love, the full power to remember, and the full power to provide light. As we hold on to this moment with newfound hope, may the smile of your neighbor grant you reprieve to cope. So even in those moments when the lawn feels most dim, let us always find the light that lays near on the brim.
In these, the darkest and longest nights of the year, the community's full power comes from those we hold dear. They would want you, when you are ready, to dance and love and sing once again and to do so not because you've forgotten them. Devin, Lavel and D'Sean will never be forgotten. Dance and sing and love again when you are ready because you remember them and the light that they shared with all of us.
