A Thank You From the Lanes

It's been 2 months now since Miss Lisa's son Josh passed away, a very rough 2 months for her. She's going through something that no parent should ever have to go through, and while I know that saying has been used for millennia, it rings as true today as it did the first time it was uttered.

The support of each and every one of you that sent a sympathy card, an email, a donation, or a simple prayer helped tremendously, more than I can express in words. It showed her that she wasn't having to bear this burden alone.
Yes, I was there for her, but as a husband, that's my job and is expected. What wasn't expected was the huge outpouring of support from folks like you that took a few moments to show that you cared. That in itself was amazing. As we grow older we begin to become hardened to tragedy and suffering, or so we think until something like this happens, then we're shown that compassion still lives and in some of the most unexpected places and ways.
For this we thank you from the bottoms of our hearts. I can't begin to tell you how much you've helped my wife through this, but please know that each and every one of you made a huge difference in our lives and we'll never forget this.
-Ken and Lisa Lane
