Family thanks community for support

Date: 4/5/2010

The Vedovelli family would like to thank everyone who attended and/or contributed to our benefit held on March 27 at the Springfield Elks. We are truly blessed to have so many loving friends and family. The overwhelming attendance took us by surprise and warmed our hearts. Words will never be enough to express how much your support means and what a difference it has made in Heidi’s recovery.

Special thanks to Kathy Reid from Reid’s catering. She is an amazing cook and knows exactly how a kitchen should be run. To all of those who volunteered their time to help her – thank you. We have received so many wonderful comments about how delicious the food was and how well it was served.

Praises to Lynn Vedovelli and Joanne Hynds for organizing such a wonderful event. We can only imagine how overwhelmed you were with the response. We truly appreciate all that you did and the personalized touch you gave it all.

We would also like to thank our families for all their support during the last nine months. It has been a challenging journey and you have made it easier. We would be lost without you.

We love you all.

David, Heidi, Joey, Valerie and Justin Vedovelli
