Honoring Our 2026 Gala Co-Chairs
Brian & Tori Heintzelman
We are proud to recognize Brian and Tori Heintzelman as this year's Gala Co-Chairs—a devoted couple whose commitment to family, community, and service exemplifies the spirit of this event. As parents to Ashlyn, Brady, Brittlee, and Brant, Brian and Tori have built a home centered on love, resilience, and unwavering support.
Their family's journey has been shaped by both joyful milestones and unique challenges, particularly as they have navigated life alongside their son Brady, now 25. Through every step, Brian and Tori have demonstrated extraordinary strength, advocacy, and determination, ensuring that Brady has every opportunity to thrive while inspiring those around them with their compassion and perseverance.
Together, they have embraced the role of dedicated parents, champions for inclusion, and pillars of support within their community. Whether celebrating successes, overcoming obstacles, or lending a helping hand to others, Brian and Tori lead with grace, generosity, and a deep belief in the power of family and community.
Their children—Ashlyn, Brady, Brittlee, and Brant—are at the heart of everything they do, and their family's story is a testament to the impact of unconditional love and steadfast dedication. We are honored to celebrate Brian and Tori and grateful for their leadership as they help guide this year's Starry Starry Night Gala.
