RIP Brian Wilson. Impossible for me to reflect back on my childhood without hearing the Beach Boys soundtrack play alongside the memories, largely influenced by my dad (whom I love dearly). From learning to belt the words of "Wouldn't It Be Nice" long before I understood what they meant to baa-baa-baaing on road trips to "Barbara Ann," many of my life's simplest, happiest moments are intertwined with Brian's music. As a summer kid on the lake in Michigan or around the community pool, the staples were "Surfin' USA" and "I Get Around." Then, as a tween who yearned for visits to the West Coast but proud of her East Coast roots, "California Girls" became the favorite. I am nearly positive my dad sent me a YouTube link to it once I finally made the decision to move to California as an adult. And if I have a wedding one day with a father-daughter dance, it would be to one song and one song only: "God Only Knows" because, yes, God only knows what I'd be without the man who introduced me to the Beach Boys.

I got to photograph him once on the red carpet for the movie about him. I gotta dig up the photo.

I think it was a cover of the original but the Sunkist ‘Good Vibrations’ commercial was my first exposure to the Beach Boys. R.I.P. https://youtu.be/d6qN3fBIcVU?si=mzMaMWex6yy5P_Xy

Oh, what sad news. I love The Beach Boys 😓! Always present in Adam Sandler's movies!

We played it a lot when we are on the road to go windsurfing. So much fun and I still love to think about that time. Good memories and great music 😍
