I am honored to be living amongst some of the most wonderful people I have ever met."

Lana, may you rest in peace and may God comfort the hearts of those who are grieving.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

A special thank you to the MANY volunteers from Lana's church, neighborhood, restaurant owners and customers, to her family, volunteer groups and the friends she didn't even know she had for making this last weekend a huge success. Words can't describe the gratitude felt from everyone involved in making a difference in our "Love for Lana" benefit.

We had everything from all kinds of baked goodies to the glam station where you could get dolled up, her family of clown friends, chiropractic, dental work, raffles, crafts, massages, and MORE! Lana I am sure would be overwhelmed, as I, at the generosity of others! She truly has a network of love praying and doing what they can to help her through this tragic event. There were miracles that happened, generosity of angels and great friendships made, which is what Lana is all about!
