"Thank you.  Those words seem so inadequate to thank you for what you have done for me.  Both in the afternoon Support Group that I attended and in the recent 'Hope for the Holidays' service, your continued display of compassion, thoughtfulness, and consideration for others, all in a most professional way, has been wonderful.  Your kindness to me will long be remembered.  You have shown me, and many others, that life goes on and that we can work our way through this difficult time." -Adult who attended Support Group for Loss of Spouse and Hope for the Holidays

 

"Thanks for letting my daughter take this book to read with me.  We had a few more tears together.  Her whole countenance looks lighter after our time with you.  There's no possible way to adequately thank you for what you've done for my daughter and me, but we do thank you from the bottom of our hearts." - Parent of child who received individual counselling
