We’re honored to welcome Eric Perkins, longtime media personality and Grief Club board member, as the emcee for this year’s Healing Hearts Soiree.
Known affectionately as “Perk,” Eric is a familiar face to many in the Twin Cities. He built a celebrated career as a sports anchor at the NBC affiliate in Minneapolis–St. Paul, earning multiple Regional Emmy Awards and covering five Olympic Games.Today, he leads his own production company, Perk at Play Productions.
We’re grateful to have Perk guide us through this special evening with warmth, energy, and his signature style.
We’re thrilled to welcome back Jenn Bostic, acclaimed country singer-songwriter, as our special musical guest for this year’s Healing Hearts Soiree.
Jenn joined us at our very first Soiree five years ago, and we’re deeply grateful for her continued support of our mission.
This milestone evening will be made even more powerful by her soul-stirring performance of “Jealous of the Angels” — a heartfelt tribute to love and grief that has touched hearts around the world.
Her music beautifully reflects why we gather: to honor, to remember, and to carry hope forward.
It will be a powerful, full-circle moment — one that promises to move your heart and stay with you long after the night ends.
