With Heavy Hearts

Early this morning, after battling cancer for 5 years and 7 months, our beautiful sister, daughter, mother and wife, Colleen, returned to her Heavenly Father. We are absolutely heart broken.

She fought until the very end to be here for her family. And she would want us to remember that since she made it more than 5 years, she is still considered a cancer survivor!

We love you all for your love and prayers for her over the past few years. She felt the comfort of them, especially in the last week.

Please continue to keep her family in your prayers… They will need the support for a long time yet.

Love and thanks,

Mark, Trinity, Hunter & Logan

Thank you all so much!!

I want to personally extend my gratitude to all of you for your help with this auction! It has been a crazy couple of months, but it has been so worth it! We ended up just $10-15 shy of our original goal for the auctions, which is pretty awesome in my book!

THANK YOU to everyone who donated an item, and especially those who donated (or created) multiple items.

THANK YOU to everyone who looked and clicked and bid on the auctions, and won their items sometimes at a great bargain and sometimes at a very generous bidding price that brought tears to our eyes.

THANK YOU to everyone who passed on the link to this auction and worked to get the word out.

THANK YOU to those who could not bid, but who sent their best wishes, thoughts and prayers in Colleen’s direction.

It has been a long road. There is still a journey ahead as she fights to regain balance within her body’s cells. But she is winning, and that’s all that matters. She still needs all of your prayers. Please keep her in your thoughts. And though the auction is over, the Donate button will remain here on the website until Colleen is able to go home with her children. We are hoping that it will be at the end of August (fingers crossed!).

As always, you can keep up with Colleen’s progress (when she is able to update) at Caring Bridge.org.
