My family and I would like to send a million thank yous out to each and every person who bought t-shirts or made a donation. More importantly, we want you to know how grateful we are to be part of such a beautiful community of people. The love & support coming to us through positive thoughts, well wishes and prayers has been so uplifting. For anyone who has gone through struggles in their life, it can feel so lonely and dark at times, but we want you to all know that those fears and feelings of dread are so much easier to work through knowing that there are so many people who care. Our hearts are so full. God bless you all for taking time to give. Each gift has been a blessing, and your words of encouragement are a reminder that with God we can do anything. Thank you so much!
