Our family owes a huge debt of gratitude to the Morgan Hill chapter of Parrot Heads in Paradise. During the Taste of Morgan Hill, the Parrot Heads raised $15,000 for Dominic’s recovery fund! This will be a tremendous help for our family as we continue to work towards Dominic’s recovery. We are proud to call them friends and were honored to have been accepted into their fold. They’re a dedicated, compassionate group of people and I look forward to contributing to their next charitable undertaking. Please visit their website and frequent the businesses that contributed to the success of their fundraising effort. Thank you, Parrot Heads. You’ve done a truly wonderful thing.
We were proud to have Dominic with us during the presentation ceremony at Poppy’s Seafood Market (thanks for hosting, Mike). It had only been a few weeks since he made his first visit during the Taste of Morgan Hill fundraising event, but those in attendance were amazed by the progress he had made in that short time. Dominic is no longer confined to a wheelchair and is finally able to speak and interact with his friends and family. It was really heartwarming to see how many people were touched by his accident and his fight to recover. We also want to thank the entire community for the support, prayers and well wishes we have received (and continue to receive) in the weeks since Dominic's accident. Once again, I can’t tell you how incredible it feels to have had so many good people rally around to embrace our family when we needed it most.
We will be posting photos from the fundraiser and presentation ceremony soon. I promise! ;)
Love & Gratitude,
David Loperena & Family
