\"JulianFraire\"<\/p>\n

On March 20, 2014, my dear friend and fellow author, Jackie Barbosa<\/strong><\/a> received a call that can only be described as a parent’s worst nightmare. On his way to school, her sixteen-year-old son, Julian, was killed in a head-on collision.<\/p>\n

Jackie and her family’s grief is unfathomable to the majority of us. It’s the kind of grief all of us pray to God we’ll never experience first hand. And it’s the kind of telephone call I pray I’ll never have to receive again.<\/p>\n

Authors and writers in the publishing community are rallying around Jackie and her family. They have our sympathies, our prayers and our love.<\/p>\n

I know that the biggest thing I can do for my friend is to be there for her now and always. But there is also something else I’d like to do which is to contribute to the Memorial Fund Jackie and her family are setting up for Julian. Eventually, this will be turned into a scholarship fund in his name.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to contribute, please use the PayPal donate button below. Any amount is greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n

\nThank you to everyone who generously donated. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n
