We want to express a huge "thank you!" to all of you who have visited this site, prayed for Dad, prayed for us, donated to the GoFundMe, texted, called, emailed, and sent cards and flowers. 

It is important to us to thank each of you individually.  Mom loves to send letters and cards and she wants you to know that we will be reaching out personally after the holidays.  Expressing true gratitude is not to be rushed.  

We miss Dad terribly, and most especially as Christmas approaches.  But, as Mom put it, Dad "wanted to live so badly...we must go on living for him."  May all of you experiencing loss and grief this holiday season be comforted and may a little "life" slip in through the cracks.  

With Love,
The Longs
