Welcome  to Forti-fy!  However it is that you found your way here, we are delighted you made it!

We invite you to “come on in” and check out what we’re all about.  Like the construction of a new house takes time, so Fortify is in the continual stages of construction.  So far, we have have some basic tools for use, the foundation laid, and the frame up.

The conception for this website – moms fortifying moms –  actually occurred years ago when I wanted to launch this site on the celebration of our daughter being seizure-free.  (You can read that story here)

My oldest son, Kyle, had encouraged me to take all the knowledge and information I had gained, and learned from so many others, and start a site.   Kyle, tragically died in a helicopter crash in Kenya on March 3, 2019. He and his wife, Hope had just found out she was pregnant with their second child, right before he left on his trip.

Kyle. Hope, and Max October 2018

A talented artist friend of my daughter put this togther after Max had made the comment to me that Mercy might be sad that there were no pictures of her and her dad.

As the video shows, although he was not physically present when she was born,  he was very present and  excited announcing her arrival!

 

We were only able to find healing for our daughter, and help during the loss of our son, because people came along and fortified us to get the help we needed.

The goal of Forti-fy is to offer that same kind of help on a variety of topics to the Fort Wayne and surrounding area communities.

Now, every house in a neighborhood greatly benefits from resourceful neighbors.  That’s where you come in.  The team here at Forti-fy would love to have your help in adding your resources to make Forti-fy a well-stocked, and well- crafted home that everyone in the neighborhood can come on over, chat a bit, find refreshment, and get Fortify’d!  So please join us as we travel down the streets, hills and valleys of our community, walking along life’s way.

Welcome to the neighborhood!
