Lori,
Please let us know how we can help (if at all during this service). Do you need help with a guest book or food or anything?
We want to help however we can.
Love,
Jenn

Lori and Jeff,

I thought your service yesterday was just perfect. The pictures were beautiful and made us feel like we really knew Lillian. Also, your chaplain did so well in expressing your loss. Her voice was very calming and comforting.

My thoughts will be with you both as you prepare to move to the next step of your lives. I know your family and friends are of great comfort to you.

Jeff and Lori,

We were so sad to hear about Lillian. As some have had said here words can't describe the sorrow we feel for you. We lit a candle for Lillian at church yesterday and we are praying for you.

Hi Lori and Jeff,

I have told everyone I know to throw a rock in the water in honor of Lillian. My daughter, Christina, came home from school and said that she couldn't find a rock to throw in the creek, so she threw a handful of dirt instead, and thought Lillian would like that just as much because it looked cool splashing in the water! Then she laughed and I knew yes, Lillian would like this happiness in her honor.
She had overheard me tell someone about the service and remembered on her own to think of Lillian. That is the lasting impact she will have on all of us. She is in our thoughts and so are you!

So many have comented how beautiful her pictures are in the program...she is now a beautiful angel.

Thanks for keeping her site up.

All the love and light in the world!

Lori,

Robyn here at 10N shared your blog with me yesterday. I know that we were probably here at the same time in the last month or so, but we never met. We probably saw each other in the halls. I just wanted to tell you how my heart and prayers are with you.
After a year of praying and crying out to God (after our diagnosis and seeing all the precious kids here at Doernbecher) I still don't understand the why's of it all. I only know that I can trust the One who holds us all in His hands. I look forward to meeting your precious Lillian with Jesus one day when we will all truly be home and we will all be free!

Love in Christ, a sister in Him, and in the fight against cancer,

Lisa Ward (mom of Gabriel - 50 day survivor of stem cell transplant - so far!)

Hi Jeff and Lori,

Wanted to say hello I guess. I don't know. Maybe I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of Lillian. Thinking of you both. Missing the routine of checking Lillian's site for updates. You both are truly beautiful people and it breaks my heart to know you are in pain. I hope that God is helping ease that pain somehow. Someway.
Believing in god's will even when I don't want to,
Robyn

Dear Lori,

As a new mother, my heart is breaking over the loss of your baby. We have just submitted a donation to Doernbecher in memory of Lillian.

Our deepest sympathy is with you.
