Dear City of Angels,
Family, from the bottom of our hearts we are praying for respite and healing. In the face of these devastating fires, may the strength of your incredible city shine even brighter Los Angeles —we love you.
You have always been a place of pride, inspiration, resilience, hope, & unity. Though the flames may burn and steal away so much, they will never extinguish your spirit and your great community. Together you will heal, rebuild, grow… And with you, we must rise a stronger America than before.
You are brave, you are loved, you are powerful and you are not alone—sending love and strength to every person, family, and first responder on the frontlines.
Stay safe and stay strong, LA.
Your bright lights will never fade 💫
