HONORING REMY

A Bright Light from Deep Grief

Remy’s Legacy Academy is a bright light rising from unimaginable loss honoring our beloved son. Remy was 25 years young, just three weeks after celebrating his law school graduation, when his life was senselessly cut short. He was the best of “US.”

To honor his remarkable spirit, we transformed our heartbreak into a mission. Today, we live and share kindness every day by providing a small but mighty safe haven for 40 Guatemalan students to learn, grow, and thrive.
