Thanks to everyone, I am amazed at the kindness.

Thank you. Because of your generosity our expenses for Trevor's memorial service will be covered. Each one of you that donated are directly responsible for allowing Dean and I to grieve our son without the financial burden of the funeral and that brings some much needed relief at this painful time. Our sincerest thanks and appreciation.

That's good to hear. I think the entire board is behind you guys.
I second Dave's post and I'm thankful we were able to help. {{{{}}}}
Ditto, so glad it was able to ease some of the burden during this time. You know I keep thinking of something my (ex) mother-in-law said after losing her youngest son (my fav bro-in-law

) in a tragic car accident. She had told me that the hardest part was the weeks after the funeral. With all the planning and the abundance of family and friends around before and directly after the funeral, as people slowly started returning to their own lives again.......she kept thinking, WAIT, I'm not done hurting here!

Make sure you and Dean reach out to family and friends in the next little while, going to be a tough stretch. Pick up the phone, we're here to talk to or just listen. Thinking of you both!
