The Domino was claimed in Louisville, CO. Here's what the claiming party wrote:
I was at the first annual John Breaux Clean Up Day, on May 9, 2009, in Louisville, Colorado to capture the day's events by video taping speakers and to interview community members and friends of John Breaux in order to know how John Breaux has touched their lives. Jared Polis shared a great message about how John inspired him and leading all of us to serve our communities. Congressman Polis introduced and connected Herb Morreale... we shared what each of us are working on - in our communities. Jared has a knack of connecting people and letting us see how we can support each other in our causes and learn about other causes that support and help the greater good.
John Breaux was an extraordinary man who touched many lives in Louisville and Lafayette, Colorado. He was suddenly killed in January by a car, while picking up trash on the side of the road. He was doing what he loved to do most: Serving his community by keeping it clean, smiling and waiving at everyone. Approximately 4,000 people attended his memorial service at Flatirons Community Church, which was extremely inspiring. That afternoon, I rode my bike to the highway where John was killed and reflected. I was inspired to do something BIG and make a difference. At that point, I decided that I wanted to spread the word by creating a media avenue to share and inspire other communities to do what John did for our communities. I made a commitment to my community and myself that I will succeed to create a documentary that gets people excited about paying it forward and wanting to participate in doing some "Random Acts of Kindness". Let's carry on John Breux' legacy throughout the country!

The Domino Was Tipped... Here's the message the current owner attached to the domino as they preared it to be claimed by another person:
I'm passing on this domino to someone who I hope will find a way to use Topplers to keep John Breaux's memory alive and inspire others to set big things in motion.
