Heroes give instead of take.
They act instead of talk.
They step forward and do the hard unseen jobs,
to give the best of themselves – measuring their own
success not by wealth or comfort,
but by the lives they touch along the way.
That’s what heroes do – and you are one of those people.
Maybe you don’t think of yourself that way,
But that’s what you are to us.

(J.F. Peterson)

With Love from Jimi & Kristin

 

 
 

In addition to Mike, Chris and Bob, who we now consider Jimi’s adopted godfathers,

we really wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks to Grandma & Grampa (Bill & Judy

Capes). your tireless efforts helping with all of the jobs that I kept putting on my

plate were exceptional. You put in long hard hours and like everything else in our lives,

we couldn’t have done it without you!!


Uncle Chuck, Aunt Eileen, cousins Joey & Charlie you watched Jimi all weekend for me,

making it possible for me to do all the things I needed to do, knowing that he was safe

and happy. That is a comfort that any mother has a hard time putting into words.


To all of those people who worked, played, volunteered, donated, attended, or who just

had us in their thoughts and prayers. The time all of you put into organizing and making

sure our day was a success is priceless. A special thanks to all of the bands who jammed

for Jimi out of the kindness of their hearts, you are all exceptional people.


The Jam for Jimi was a huge success and far exceeded anything we could have ever

imagined. We were so fortunate to have reached our goal and Jimi can begin attending

the Empowered Learning Center in Stamford immediately. We were overwhelmed by

the turnout at Martini’s and feel very blessed to have the love and support of so many

wonderful people.


The sense of relief we feel knowing that Jimi can now get the much needed help that we

have been searching for is indescribable. We can now start to relax, enjoy each other and

spend more quality time together without the stress of worrying about how to pay for his

medical treatment.


This event has only expanded our family to include all of you and we would like to keep

you updated on Jimi’s progress. If any of you are interested, please leave Jimi a message1

in the guest book and your email will be saved. This will allow us to keep you posted on

Jimi’s  treatment/progress.


These simple words are not enough to express how truly blessed and grateful we are

and forever will be to all of you. We only hope that we can someday “Pay it forward”

to another needy child and keep this spirit of giving alive!!


Thank you from the bottom of our hearts…


Love Jimi & Kristin

First, once again, I'd like to thank everyone for their help and support. If it was a simple donation , if you bought a ticket, if you came and had a drink, if your band played, if you watched the door, took pictures, or just hung out and had fun, I THANK YOU!

Many people are saying things to me like "You're a hero, so nice for what you did". I did what came naturally, helped a friend in need. Maybe I can thank my parents for that quality. As many of you know, my Mom hardly knew Kristin or Jimi, but put her whole being into this cause, for that I thank you, once again.

Here is the new link:

http://www.bill-capes.com/jimjam/    (Bill Capes is 'Grampa')

Please send pictures if you have them, video, anything, even a story about the day. Share it on this web site so all can see. Most of the day was a blur for me, I was very busy and had the HONOR of playing with 3 great bands, The Navels, Total Hacks (my band), and Kung Fu Grip.

Once again, thank you. I want to know what I missed, so tell me / tell us on the site.

THANK YOU ALL from the bottom of my heart for all the help.

your friend

CHI a.k.a. Chris
