Blake Christopher O’Donnell and Teresa Garofalow Westervelt tied the knot in a stunning ceremony on August 16, 2024. Surrounded by family and friends, the couple exchanged vows in a celebration that was nothing short of magical.
Rosie O’Donnell, Blake’s proud mom, shared her joy on social media, posting heartwarming photos from the day. “Awwww… #newlyweds –\Blake and Teresa O’Donnell #loveuso,” she captioned one image of the couple gazing lovingly at each other.
The wedding was filled with special moments, including Anne Steele, Blake’s stepmother, singing her original song “Timeless” for the couple’s first dance. “It was my honor to sing…I will never forget it,” Anne shared in her post.
The reception was a lively affair, with guests dancing the night away on a smoke-machine-infused dance floor. Teresa, later changing into a different dress and sneakers, and Blake were seen jumping by the DJ booth as sparkles lit up the scene.

Man Rescued a Trapped Crying Wild Horse. How It Thanked Him is Unbelievable
In a heartwarming turn of events outside of Calgary, a group of Good Samaritans came to the rescue of a distressed horse trapped in a treacherous marshland. The horse, part of a new herd in the area, had wandered off during heavy rainfall, finding itself stuck in the muddy quagmire.
Darla Connelly, overseeing the situation, expressed deep concern for the new herd, unfamiliar with the challenging terrain during this unusually rainy season. Her fears materialized when one of the mares, a two-year-old, ventured too far and got trapped in the marsh.
The rescue effort kicked into high gear when the distress signals from the trapped horse were spotted. A team of volunteers from Help Alberta Wildlife Society, equipped with ATVs and specialized rescue gear, rushed to the scene. The horse, struggling to keep afloat, faced the imminent threat of sinking further into the muddy abyss.
Daryl Glover, one of the volunteers, braved the treacherous mud to approach the distressed mare. With careful maneuvering, he secured a rope around the horse’s hindquarters, offering support to ease her struggle. The coordinated efforts of the team prevented the situation from escalating further.
As the ATV’s engine roared, the rescue rig tightened the rope, allowing the horse to gain a foothold and aiding her ascent. In a remarkable display of resilience, the horse’s hind legs found firmer ground, and with each pull, she inched closer to safety.
Amidst the tension of the rescue operation, an unexpected moment of gratitude unfolded. Once the horse was on solid ground, she exhibited a surprising display of appreciation. Rather than bolting away in fear, the mare approached Daryl, nuzzled him, and even sniffed in acknowledgement.
