Help Us Celebrate the Life of Russell Bridges

On June 6th, we lost a beautiful soul—Russell Bridges. Russell was a bright light in this world, known for his infectious laugh, boundless love, and the way he made everyone feel welcomed and seen. His presence could light up any room, and the memory of his laughter will echo in our hearts forever. He was truly one of the best humans, and the world feels dimmer without him.

We are raising funds to bring his sister and her two beautiful kids to Boise for his Celebration of Life on October 11th. Your support will help cover their travel expenses so they can be with us as we honor Russell’s memory.

We also hope to host a heartfelt memorial gathering with a barbecue and some beverages—just the way Russell would’ve wanted—to bring together those who knew and loved him.

If you knew Russell , please consider donating and sharing this campaign. If you didn’t have the chance to meet him but feel moved to contribute, any support is deeply appreciated. Every dollar helps us bring his loved ones together and give him the celebration he deserves.

Thank you for helping us honor Russell’s 

life, love, and legacy.
