If you haven’t heard about this story via the news or social media, let me make sure you hear about it here…

Here is the info from the Facebook page that was set up for the search & rescue:

Surfing early Sunday in Sumatra Indonesia, Daniel Bobis went missing. His leash broke and they found his board and he has not returned. His Wife, Friend, and Father along with Local and Globe Aid are searching for him.

A donation fund to aid in the search for Daniel Bobis has been created. Funds will be allocated to any resources that will support the search including helicopter rental, local manpower, travel expenses, etc. All donations will be given directly to the family. Time is of the essence. Thank you for your support in these crucial hours. To donate, log in to PayPal and send funds to dannybobisfund@gmail.com

I can’t stop thinking about his wife and the heartbreak she must be going through.  It must be unbearable.  I wish there was more I could do, but sadly, there isn’t.  There is something amazing about the community I live in though.  There has been an outpouring of support and love for this man who some of us never even knew too well.  Everyone is praying.

The rabbi who married us spoke at a vigil held on the boardwalk on Sunday night.  He said everyone should go out of their way to do an extra deed of goodness and kindness everyday, something caring, and that gd will look upon that as something incredible & help bring Daniel home.  “Something out of the ordinary brings about something out of the ordinary”  Daniel made a huge impact on the lives of so many young minds here and I think that I will take the Rabbi’s advice & do something out of the ordinary everyday to do my part to impact his life and the life of his family.

If everyone who reads this blog did something out of the ordinary today, maybe even donated to the PayPal fund, we could make an impact too…

If you have a blog of your own that you can get info about this story out on, our community here in Long Beach, NY would be ever appreciative.
