Thank you. Two simple words cannot express how I felt when I walked into McKay Hall on March 20. My family and I were overwhelmed by the love and generosity expressed by our family, friends and strangers, who are now friends.

A special thanks to Toby and Tracy Guenthart, Troy and Pam Guenthart, Sonny and Annette Palmer, Bill and Mary Hodson, Tim and Jill Mankins, Kim and Danny Ellis, Chris and Chrystal Phillips, Monique Beaudoin, Jim Taber and Isabell Reese for organizing this great shin-dig.

Thank you to those who donated their time and energy to help set-up, clean-up, cook and serve for this special event. Also, my gratitude and appreciation to all of the sponsors and donors who helped make the benefit a success.

I’m proud to say you raised over $25,000 to help with my mom’s medical bills. It’s unbelievable how you all came together to support those in need, especially in these tough economic times we are experiencing. We are eternally grateful to you all. Thanks with love.

Jessica Guenthart and Family
