In todays episode we will hear from Jennifer Osler-Bolton (podcast host at Lavender Dahlia) how the tragic death of her husband Rylan Osler impacted her and how she and her children were supported during her time of grief. She will go on to give us some advice about how to best support a loved one who has suffered a loss. Jennifer is also newly remarried and shares how her new marriage has completely transformed her life.

Ryan Osler was one that could be trusted to do a job well, do it correctly, and give it everything he had. Known as “Otter” throughout the department, his reputation spread quickly as the guy who always had a strong sense of duty, offered a quick grin, and was the first to get dirty or offer a helping hand.  In September of 2016 Ryan tragically lost his life while responding to the Canyon Fire in Lompoc California. Ryan and his partner were involved in a tragic accident involving their water tender as they were transporting water to the fire. He left behind his wife of nearly 16 years Jennifer Osler-Bolton and their two children.
