Page 1 - Photo Album for Bob Seger

Dear Cole, December 12, 2021

I regretted sending you a Facebook message recently. Too late, I wondered what it must be like to ‘live in the shadows’ as Bob
Seger’s son. I’m sure people try to get to your dad through your connection, without ever considering YOU as your own person.
So, I took time to learn more about Christopher Cole Seger the individual and the man. (My regret in sending you that lame-O note
was justified). You’re not just ‘an extension of Bob Seger’— YOU are Cole Seger—making your own way and ‘quietly taking over the
world’. There is no doubt you will leave an enduring impact in your own right!

Your New Radio Media interview on The Drop In with Garold Vallie was both revealing and moving. The down to earth sincerity and

humility you conveyed was refreshing. I appreciate your commitment to becoming and staying clean and sober, as well as your
dedication to following your passion as a filmmaker. The comments about having respect for everyone regardless of where they
came from and remembering the lessons you have learned along the way encouraged me. Discovering you’re a writer put an
urgency on sharing my story concisely, without appearing trite or cliché. Wish me luck!

Here’s part of my saga: On a lovely spring morning in 2019, I was visited by the DNR. Someone in the neighborhood had reported
that “I was stealing rocks and putting them in creek to divert the current”! I asked the officer if she would like to see antique

photographs of those same rocks, and we both laughed. She asked what I was doing with my place, so I mentioned a photo album I
created for your dad that someone promised to hand deliver. Her reply: “I grew up next door to them in Bloomfield Hills. My mom
still lives there. When you send it, tell Cole and Sam that Brandy Collins from home says, ‘Hi’! You’ll find her picture within the
pages.

Beginning September 23rd, I was extremely ill with The ‘Rona’ for 5 weeks. During that time, I literally dreamed of ways to somehow
finally get this delivered, since my friend’s offer to get it to Bob fell through. It seemed to me the Brandy Collins episode happened
for a reason, so I’m hoping and believing you are my messenger in this situation.

Attached is a link to a digital version of the album. (It’s best viewed on a computer, not a phone or pad.) When you regard the
contents, all of my reasons for reaching out to you will become obvious, so I won’t take time to restate it here. There are no
stipulations or expectations—I’m just needing to see this through. All I ask is for a PO Box to mail you the original, to deliver as you
see fit! I pray that I’m not asking too much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
