Hi Elite Fam,
Happy Friday. First of all, I want to thank everyone who reached out, sent messages, commented, and kept me and my family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time with my brother's passing. It truly means more than you know.
While losing him has been incredibly hard, we find comfort in knowing that he is no longer suffering. Cancer is a horrible disease that takes a tremendous toll on a person's mind, body, and spirit, and we're grateful that he is finally at peace and no longer in pain.
I also want to thank everyone for your patience and understanding. As many of you know, my brother's viewing and services were this past Wednesday. Because of everything that's been going on, I have taken a few days to step away and spend some time with my family and reflect.
I will be returning on Monday and resuming regular business hours. Until then, I will not be responding to messages, comments, calls, or inboxes. I will get back to everyone beginning this coming Monday. If I haven't responded to you yet, please know it is not intentional and I am not ignoring anyone. I simply needed a little time to process everything and come back with a fresh mind and renewed focus.
Thank you all again for your kindness, support, prayers, patience, and understanding during this difficult time. It is truly appreciated.
Russell
