And I learned a lot from this inspirational guy named Wayne Ford.

You know, I felt like this song and my friendship with this guy who had died and a fan where we're doing something. He donated and because of HIPAA laws, you can't know what happened to your donor. Oh, that would drive me nuts. So after a year, you can write a letter. After a year, the recipient will make the decision whether or not they want to contact you.

Me and my buddy Todd, who donated through the whole year, were like, I hope this person, because we were told he survived after a couple months, but we didn't know how long, whatever. So we were talking about it and we'd joke too. We're like, what if he's like the grand wizard of the KKK or something? Like it's just a total jerk. What if we did the wrong thing? We'd joke about it.

But after a year goes by, shortly after a year, my buddy Todd hits me. He's like, dude, I heard from him. He's 69. He lives in Denver, Colorado. He's a photographer. Not in a clan. He's a photographer. He's an old rock and roll musician. He's awesome. And so he went and surprised this man whose name is Michael in Denver on his 70th birthday.
