While Jen and Leila were away, Mark, who was home, was thankfully able to escape. Tragically, their home and belongings were completely destroyed. Jen and Mark are loving parents to 8-year-old Leila, who is heartbroken and trying to make sense of this overwhelming loss. As you can imagine, their family is facing an unimaginable time — and they need our help. Jen is also a local comedian, producer, and longtime supporter of the Windsor comedy scene. Let’s come together as a community to support their family as they begin to rebuild their lives. Any contribution — big or small — will go directly toward helping them replace essentials, secure temporary housing, and begin to recover from this tragedy. As a community, the comedians from across Ontario and Michigan reached out wanting to put on a show, so we dedicate this night to Jen Richardson and all she has done for the Windsor comedy community, from her shows she put on through Gangs All Here, to all she did in being a part of what made Windsor Laughs possible. Not just her contributions to comedy, but also her dedication to supporting all local artists. This is Windsor's opportunity to give back. Tickets from this show will go directly to Jen and her family to help rebuild.
