Happy Birthday Big Brother!

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

I remember the days following Otto’s journey into the universe… the sky was bluer, the clouds were fluffier, everything had more vibrance. I am in Sonoma right now and the sky looks as it did then. He is including us in his celebration of no more birthdays!!! Now he’s ageless and infinite.

LOVE YOU OTTO! Thank you for spreading your energy to everything!
If Otto touched you, take a moment to go outside and take a big deep breath of Otto LOVE! And then say GIVE THANKS!

Otto’s final journey

Monday, September 8th, 2008
Wow, the deadline is quickly approaching to send Otto’s ashes on its final journey to Peru. Remember, I am covering the travel expenses myself. So, your tax deductible donations are 100% going to the Love Hope Strength Foundation and are eligible for Matching Gift from many of your employers.
We have raised $2,781 so far to help build cancer treatment facilities in Peru. Our goal is to raise $10,000 and the qualification deadline is this Friday. So many people journey to Machu Piccu as tourist every year but very little of the tourist dollars benefit the local population. The proceeds of these donations are being used to benefit the people of Peru and specifically those suffering from cancer. Big thanks to the following folks!

CLICK HERE to help me fulfil my final promise to Otto. The next 5 minutes could make a huge difference.
Otto’s spirit has been very present in so many major things lately. Give Thanks! From the beautiful shrine at the temple of forgiveness to the Power to the Peaceful event where we took the kids of Hunter’s Point Family to help raise funds for new music equipment, Otto is so thankful for the actions so many have taken to “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
Give Thanks!
