JOAN Rivers Forever in our hearts he whole God’s Love community mourns the passing of our dear friend and board member Joan Rivers. Joan was Tone-of-a-kind and irreplaceable. She will be sorely missed for her brilliant humor and insightful view on life, but most especially for the kindness and joy she brought to everything she did for God’s Love. Joan was a beloved friend of God’s Love for over 25 years, and a member of the Board of Directors since 1994. Throughout her years of service, Joan demonstrated deep commitment, compassion and generosity. In 2009, Joan won over $500,000 for God’s Love on NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice. The final challenge had the contestants putting on a gala, and we remember Joan, getting down on her hands and knees to roll out the red carpet, making sure it was perfect for the event. That’s the kind of woman she was – devoted, hard-working, strong and always fighting for what she believed in. We will miss her most at the holidays, when she would bring her daughter Melissa and grandson Cooper with her to make Thanksgiving meal deliveries. Every year, she delivered holiday meals to our clients, surprising them with jokes and their special feasts, bringing warmth and care, and brightening the holiday for so many. Joan was a staunch supporter and ambassador for God’s Love. For years, she supported the Race to Deliver, bringing her energy, voice and laughter to Central Park. This past year, Joan came to SoHo for our groundbreaking ceremony, she volunteered on Thanksgiving and Winter Feast, and she came to to celebrate the delivery of our 15 millionth meal. Joan never skipped a beat, and it always felt like coming back to God’s Love was a little like coming home for Joan. In honor and commemoration of our dear friend, we are naming the bakery in our expanded building in SoHo The Joan Rivers Bakery. Joan brought love, compassion and humor to every delivery she made and every event she supported. We will miss her, and we send our love to Melissa and Cooper who are special members of the God’s Love family. Joan’s impact on God’s Love will be felt always by our clients, volunteers, staff and community. Rest in peace, Joan. You will forever be in our hearts.

Wesleyan pre-law, worked as a landlord and Facebook.com/godslovewedeliver Ia building manager, and explored his love @godslovenyc #FoodIsMedicine of astronomy, geology and physics. He actively tutored children who were failing in reading and has always made it his mission to help others. For Erich R. years, Alexis took care of his ailing mother and, I’ve just received my first meals from God’s Love when she passed away, he started a nonprofit in We Deliver, another beautiful expression of her name. support for the ill. Alexis is no stranger to hard work and to giving back. But in 1998, Alexis grew very sick. He went to the doctor, and was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. Soon, Alexis could no longer fill his day with activities. Alexis’s viral load was through the roof and his T-cells plummeted. Alexis grew weaker by the day and had multiple hospitalizations. By 2006, Alexis could no longer shop or cook for himself. He was financially stressed and physically couldn’t make it to the store. Alexis’s nutritionist at the hospital recommended God’s Love We Deliver. She told him about how God’s Love doesn’t include preservatives in our food and it would benefit him, health-wise and financially. @LegendaryLuna Alexis called God’s Love and immediately started @godslovenyc back in the 90s y’all helped me in receiving our meals. so many ways. Thank you. A Turn for the Better Alexis tells us, “I’ve been so sick, I am surprised that I am alive.” His debilitating pain keeps him home, in his bed, and he rarely leaves the house. Receiving meals from God’s Love gives him not only proper nutrition but also the comfort of seeing a friendly face when his meal is delivered and of knowing people care about him. Today, Alexis is on a new medication and says that this medicine, combined with our nutritious food, has made him healthier than he has been in years. “The meals have saved me financially. The meals have helped me with my health. The meals are my lifeline. I need you more than ever.” From our dietitians, Alexis has received great information that helps him eat healthier. His T-cell levels have risen dramatically and his viral load has @dobeedanny decreased significantly – both of which represent What a bunch a meatballs I crew with! @ great improvements in his health, and he attributes godslovenyc#volunteernyc much of his good health to the food we bring him. Alexis tells us, “I love your food – it’s wholesome, meaning I get everything that I need! Starch, protein and vegetables – my doctor is so proud of me for the way that I eat! And the soups are really @StefanieDeLeo great, too!
