Sometimes one of the best paths to begin the healing journey is through our smiles, laughter and joy.

I was blessed this past week to have the APALACHEE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM come visit me at the production soundstages I’ve been filming at here in Atlanta, Georgia.

As the world knows, Apalachee High School in Winder, GA, has endured the unimaginable tragedy of a mass shooting.

I didn’t know what to expect when I walked in to meet them - I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by their spirit and energy. I looked these kids in their eyes and hugged ‘em - I know they’re in great pain, but man are they resilient and staying strong.

It was as if they just needed a reason, an opportunity to just “let it all go” in this moment.

As we said goodbyes, the last kid I hugged said, “we needed this Rock”
(so did I)

I can’t begin to imagine what these players and all the students, teachers & staff of Apalachee High are going through right now, but I’m here in any and every way I can be - to give my support and love to them and their families as they begin their healing journey.

God bless you all.

We Are One Apalachee.

ps, I’m in touch with Coach Hancock and as promised, I’ll be there for your first home game.
