THANK YOU! These two words don’t do justice for the appreciation we feel for those who are working tirelessly on the front lines, for those who have reached out to help someone else and for those whose compassion and gratitude have made someone smile. In a time where we all feel so distant from one another, the Brydon & Ives Team feels extremely blessed and proud to live here in Lamorinda where we have regularly witnessed beautiful moments of kindness right in front of us, on Nextdoor, on Lamorinda Families and through stories shared with friends. We will get through this together and be stronger for it!
