The past couple of days have afforded us the chance to exhale, decompress a bit and reflect on Maddie’s benefit. We always knew how special Maddie was and over the past 3 years we were able to witness on so many occasions her ability to draw love out of people. Those occasions usually involved a person or two at a time in the comfort of our living room. After Sunday’s incredible turn out, Maddie has proven to all of us once again that she is just as special now as she ever was. Life has been a roller coaster the past 3 ½ years, and we have experienced some tremendous ups and some obvious downs along the way. So often we have been asked, “How do you guys do it”; and we always pointed to the support group we have had all along. The showing of 600 plus people who came out to support us on Sunday is the clearest indication of the quality of support we have enjoyed the past few years. It is that support that has given us the strength to face each day with a smile, and allowed us to truly enjoy Maddie and the boys in the brief time that we had her here with us. To see so much love in one room on Sunday was an experience that we will never forget, and we hope that these words are sufficient enough to convey to all of you how deeply appreciative and thankful we have been of your support, and how proud we are to call all of you our friends.

To our number 1 supporter, we would like to thank you Maddie, our Angel. You have guided us along this journey and we know that you are watching over us now and will continue to. We love you so, so much.

Thank you and God Bless All
