      Exactly! I have SO much respect for them and I love how they don't just send a check in, and go about their lives...they actually donate their time by physically stacking/ lifting heavy boxes, unpacking, moving, shipping,etc...and donate their hearts by following up, making calls to make it happen and staying on top of everything to make sure it gets done. Amazing couple! And a great team together. ❤️🙂🙏

    I've been a Bon Jovi fan since 1984 or 1985. I didn't know he married his high school sweetheart. With his looks and being the frontman of an incredible rock band, he had his pick of so many women. The fact that he married Dorothea and remains with her is a very rare thing. God Bless them and all they do for the poor. That is so much more than being who he is on stage.

Which i think he did had affairs in the period he was single but he realized he missed his ex so much and loved her so after the long tour he came back and went to her home and they talked and he said he deciced to marry her and she agreed

    I remember when I was in high school Jon announced his marriage to Dorthea. So many girls in school we're pissed. Calling her ugly.
    I just told them they were jealous because she had him and they didn't. It cracked me up these girls actually thought they had a chance with him.
    They are a true success story and it's good to see he uses his celebrity to do good things with her by his side.

All just jealousy and body shaming and this is considered to be normal among girls. And people ask why we still need feminism.

      Still got my Bon Jovi Album , Still Love SHOT THROUGH THE HEART and SHE DON'T KNOW ME
      back in the 90s i once saw Jon on an interview and he said something pretty close the following.
      First he went on about a topic of , When someone achieves a certain amount of financial success,
      then when they have bought everything they need and are taken care of
      then they have taken care of their freinds and family , What do you do after that , What do you do after there is no use for money anymore
      he said..... You help humanity and your fellow man
      he then said this...
      "If ever there is someone in need , Who is Genuinely in need" (he then cautiously pauses to make sure he chooses his words correctly and continues to say ) "If i can use my money, my popularity , my influence or celebrity to help............. I will"
      that always stayed with me

To see Jon and Dorothea still happily married and best friends that work together to give back to their community and to help people in need is really what life's all about, especially these days. Dorothea, would you consider writing a book about your perspective on being married to Jon and your experiences as a wife and mother from the beginning of his career? I would buy that book in a second. You are truly amazing people.

    I've been to the first JBJ Soul Kitchen in Red Bank, NJ twice and loved the food and and pay it forward idea. Love the idea and met some wonderful people that they've really helped feed and give a chance to learn another skill and that their are definitely people out there that care and very willing to "pay it forward". What a committed and wonderful couple they are!!💜💜

    • @CarrieLuikens
      @CarrieLuikens 2 года назад +1

      Yep, the pay forward idea is very cool. It encourages everyone to contribute in some way. That is how everything should be, actually. Those who have more share a little extra to help out someone with less.

    I've been a Bon Jovi fan for decades! But when I see positive uplifting stories like this, it just makes me admire him and his family as kind human beings, not celebrities. He and his wife are "walking the walk", using their super powers for good! It's inspiring that they aren't topping, they just keep doing more and they are affecting real change in their own "backyard". Sure, it's great when celebrities give to causes in other countries, but there are SO MANY communities in need right here in this country. It's so sad to think of children going to school hungry or our seniors that live below the poverty line and add in the pandemic and it impacts things even more these days. We're the United States of America, one of the most prosperous nations in the world, we should always strive to do better, be better. Like Jon said, it doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, what side of the aisle you're on, everyone should have access to the basic needs to function in day to day life: food, water, shelter, clothing. A little human kindness goes a long way. I wish there was a way to do what he and his wife have done in their community, in more communities across the country.

    Jon has been helping the less fortunate since before he was a superstar. He gave out concert tickets to a child with physical disabilities because he bumped into him on a flight to Denver. He's always thinking of others. He doesn't take his successful lifestyle for granted...he's always sharing with others everywhere he goes. This is a man whose "a gift" from God to the world. 🙏

    What a humble down to earth, selfless Rockstar!

What they are doing and them actually physically doing the work while they could hire ppl to do it for them says it all and shows just how caring and down to earth they are. Many blessings!!!!
