In 2012, my brother, Maurice, passed away unexpectedly. To say he was fearless would be a gross understatement. He enjoyed riding motorcycles, throwing parties and traveling. His life was something awesome, but it was cut too short.
To honor his memory I created my Awesome List. It’s just a list of things that I think would be awesome to do, experience or try. You only get one shot at it. So why not live it up?
It is my goal to complete everything (dream big!) and document it. I’ll also be updating it with even more awesome things as I think them up.
