Supporters of Bo’s Place gathered at the Hilton Houston Post Oak to celebrate 34 years of serving the community. Executive director Jennifer Boubel, guest speaker Kreis Beall, board president Kirsten Herrscher, event co-chairs David and Amy Mitchell, Laura and Mark Dalton, Emily and Chad Covey and Sue Smith and honorees Lauren and Rob Gray enjoyed the Hearts of Hope luncheon and helped raise more than $450,000 to support the nonprofit bereavement center’s grief-support services, education, and resources. Kreis Beall, co-founder of Blackberry Farm, an award-winning Relais & Chateaux resort in East Tennessee, and author of The Great Blue Hills of God: A Story of Facing Loss, Finding Peace, and Learning the True Meaning of Home, inspired the crowd with her experiences of living with grief. Event co-chairs Emily and Mark Covey, Laura and Mark Dalton, and Amy and David Mitchell put together a beautiful afternoon that honored Lauren and Rob Gray with the Robin Bush Award, given in memory of President George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush’s daughter.
