Sat March 15 will forever be etched in our life, not only as a family but as a rescue. The devastating loss of 27 of our companions and friends has left a mark on our hearts that will take a long time to heal.

From the moment the news went viral, we were surrounded by so many people with words of love and comfort, support and donations. Around the world, strangers were reaching out to us at a time when we needed it the most. How do we thank so many hundreds of people for the kindness and love and embracing us.

If I could share every single message, note and card, it would fill page after page. Words don’t seem enough to express our sincerest thank you and gratitude to each and every single person who walked into our life. Your prayers and love and support have carried us through this and will continue to as the days and weeks go by.

To the hundreds of people who emailed, text messaged and sent cards, we thank you, to those who sent donations, collected donations and cards throughout your workplace, we thank you, to the other rescues who reached out to us with donations and cards, we thank you, to the businesses who offered toys and support immediately following the fire, we thank you…

This list may be missing a few names and I apologize in advance if you don’t see your name(we continue to add to the list) – it’s in no particular order and is an acknowledgment to the many people who have touched our lives in such a profound way.
