To All My Friends & Co-Workers at WQI:

I have written many Thank You’s in my 46 years – for birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, weddings gifts, baby gifts, etc. – but this is probably the hardest one I’ve ever had to write. How do you tell people how much their prayers, thoughts, and love mean to you?

During my surgeries and recovery, my battle with breast cancer, there has hardly been a day go by that I haven’t received a card, a note, flowers, balloons, plants, candy, or phone calls. And all from the same bunch of wonderful, loving, caring people. My family away from home. Thank you just doesn’t seem like enough words. During my ups and downs, my tears and depression, you’ve been there cheering my on.

And there aren’t many places I’ve ever worked that your bosses actually care enough about their employees to write notes, call you at home to see how you are, and to find friends to call to give you additional encouragement. Thank you, Tony & Ron, for being there for me.

Also, a special thank you to Laura Dudek for being my biggest sounding board, listening to all my tears, trials, good news, and bad news. You kept everyone posted on my condition, all my surgeries, etc. and I know you were responsible for much of the “love” that showed up at my door.

Now that I’m back to work, finally, thank all of you for the warm “welcome back” I’ve received. It feels wonderful to know that you’ve been missed and needed. Please put up with me a little longer as I go through my chemo. The hair is falling, the hat is on, and we’re almost halfway through.

So, to my friends, co-workers, actually the biggest support group anyone could have, I humbly thank you and pray that if someone ever needs me like I needed you, I’ll have the compassion to help them out like you helped me.

From the bottom of my heart and the depths of my soul, “Thank You!”
