š§”š¤ FROM MY HEART⦠THANK YOU. š¤š§”
Iāve started this post more than once because Iām honestly not sure there are words big enough for what Iām feeling after last night.
Rock the Fight was incredible.
As the owner of Old Stone Bistro, I am so proud of what our Bistro family helped create. But personally, as someone who loves Dustin and considers him part of my family, I am completely humbled by the way this community showed up for him.
Last night I looked around and saw people everywhere ā friends, family, customers, businesses, volunteers and people who simply heard that someone in our community needed them. You came. You gave. You worked. You donated. You hugged. You laughed. You cried. And most importantly, you showed Dustin that he is not fighting this alone.
That means more to me than I could ever put into words.
Because of your generosity, we raised money that will make a real difference for Dustin and his family. It will help ease some of the financial burden and allow him to put his energy where it belongs ā on himself, his family, his treatment and beating this.
That was the whole reason behind Rock the Fight. To take even one worry off his shoulders and replace it with the knowledge that an entire community is standing behind him.
To everyone who donated money, food, raffle items, time or talent⦠to everyone who volunteered, bought tickets, purchased merchandise, shared our posts or simply came out and stood beside us ā thank you.
And to my Bistro crew ā I love you guys. You continually remind me that Old Stone Bistro is so much more than a restaurant. We are a family, and when one of ours needs us, we show up.
Personally, I will never forget last night. Seeing our little community come together with that much love and generosity was one of the most humbling moments Iāve experienced.
From me personally, from everyone at Old Stone Bistro, and most importantly on behalf of Dustin and his familyā¦
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. š§”
Dustin, now you concentrate on getting better.
Weāll keep standing behind you.
One night. One community. One hell of a fight. š¤š§”š¤
