About Blake Brewer

Blake is on a mission to help dads write heartfelt and lasting letters to their children. This passion came from a personal tragedy that pushed him to encourage parents to open up more through words. His dad wrote a letter when he was 19 that changed his life. While snorkeling on the family vacation to Hawaii, his father drowned. His mom entered the room with something she had found in his briefcase: the letter. Before even finishing the letter, he can not describe the feeling of just knowing that his dad took the time to put his thoughts and feelings on paper.
