About this episode

Still grieving over the tragic loss of their dear friend and podcast regular guest, Kim and Kroy reminisce about how they met, his infectious personality, and generous spirit. They recount the devastating details of his untimely passing and share how difficult it is to watch their daughter, Brielle, be so heartbroken and not be able to fix it as parents. The family receives a call from a medium that rocks their entire world and feels like a scene straight out of the 90’s movie Ghost.   


Gone to be our angel, you are forever in our hearts.
