For Steven
This was requested from a member of our group and I wasn't sure about uploading this but the group wanted me to share it with them for the ones who missed it. Such an emotional stream. Twitch muted some of me speaking so I will just share the request in the description here.
Okay so I am about to get a little personal I appologize for that but I have a question about the networking stream today. I know I am new and please do not hesitate to tell me that its not the time or place. I am really hesistant to ask you in the first place an but thought is was worth a try. I dont share to much personal info but its kinda just one of those things. My uncle, my moms brother and best friend, died in a plane crash in august when he was crop dusting in california. My uncle has been a pilot his entire life and his plane had mechanical malfunctions and was killed instantly on impact. Like I said I am sorry I getting really personal. He would have been 41 today and he left behind three beautiful babies. My mom has been in a severe depression since and I have been right by her side as much as I can but we live on opposite sides of the country. I wasn't able to attend his funeral because I just started university, it was in mexico, and I do not have a passport..... He was an amazing man who served his country, loved his wife of 20 something years, and was an amazing man. Long story short, I was trying to honor him in some way and I dont know how. I wanted some way to show my mom that everything would be okay. I was wondering if during the networking stream if we could just maybe take a 10 second moment of silence and have everyone just put a :heart: My mom watches my twitch and I just thought it might mean a lot to her and I. And no one would need to know its me or whatever. I don't know. Please feel free to tell me this is not the kinda thing we are supposed to do,I was hesitant to ask. Thanks for reading
