A thank you message from Brian Carswell

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who blessed my family and me with the collection that was taken up for us at last year's Conference. The money was put to good use, as I had to purchase a walker to get me around once I came home. Part of the money was also used to ready my home for accommodating my special needs, like installing grab bars for the shower area.

This wonderful example of kindness and generosity shows that NIRSA folks are the finest people in the country. Thank you all for the cards and letters that so brightened my day and for all the prayers that went up for my family and me. We could feel them during the very dark days of my illness.
