Jake Brewer, RIP

In person, Mary Katharine Ham comes across the same way she does on TV — genuine, wholesome, and probably too good-natured a person to be in this business. And although she’s tough, too, she’s just lost her husband Jake Brewer in a charity cycling event accident. M.K. of course has one baby and another on the way.

I didn’t know Jake and I barely knew Mary Katharine beyond a few conventions, but her and her kids… this tragic loss…

There are no others words.

Her friend and co-author Guy Benson has launched a GoFundMe — the Jake Brewer Memorial Education Fund — for their children.

I’ve already chipped in, and I’m asking you to please give even just a little something if you can.
