Updates!

Keep checking back as I am working on the final steps to getting a Thomson Family slide show up. :)

**Finally, blog views and online donations have dramatically slowed down since the events cleared last weekend and although there was allot of support by so many people, The Thomson Family is still pretty far from meeting their needs for covering medical bills left over and getting through the next few months. If you can continue encouraging others to make donations or come out to future events, it would be so very much appreciated.  THank you!!!!!!!!

Follow up to car wash and SK8 ASYLUM

It was AMAZING to see how many people came out to support the Thomson Family yesterday. I am not sure I have seen this many people coming together to help someone else in very long time.  All the time and effort put in to both of the events on Saturday was felt by everyone who was able to witness it first hand.  The car wash actually had two lanes of traffic moving through it and the organization was as if it was a well oiled machine, with the scrubbers, dryers and detailers.  WOW! You all did a phenomenal job!  SK8 ASYLUM had tons of activity as well with so many kids and families enjoying the energy from the generosity of our community. It looked like a skaters Disneyland in that place!  The raffle was a great success, thanks to everyone that provided items to be given away! Can you just imagine how happy Brenan was that so many people were there or in spirit celebrating his special day? I also truly believe that the work of angel Bren in all this was evident in that all these people were there to surround Cody, Jamie, Madison, RyRy and the rest of the family to help them through.  

Things coming up:
Don't forget about the Memorial Golf  Tournament coming up in May.
Check back frequently, there will be more artwork and a photo slide show up very soon. 

*Keep passing the word along about Brenan's blog.  I know how important it is to mommy and daddy that everyone knows how special their little boy was, so it has been my goal that his spirit reaches far and wide and it's getting there.  I am happy to announce that his story has made it to 7 other countries so far. Keep it up!!

God Bless!

Response to inquiries on how to help.

Hello everyone,

The Thomson Family can't express enough gratitude for the tremendous outpouring of love and support during this difficult time.  There are a lot of people coming forward expressing a desire to help in some way. As a result, many of the physical needs of the family are currently being met.  Specifically, dinners have been provided through May 9th and the freezer is full of frozen meals too (Thank you! Thank you!). There will also be a lot of volunteers assisting with the car wash and the other events being planned.  We would like to ask individuals wanting to help to consider making a financial donation to the family, even if it's only $5.  This would truly help in addressing the outstanding medical bills for Brenan and also to allow them the time to focus on dealing with all aspects of their loss without the added pressure of financial concerns.  Truly, thank you for anything you are comfortable with and please pass this along!  We also want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the large amount of desire to help this family.

Blog tutorial. :)

Hi everyone, I just wanted to put it out there that when you click on one of the other tabs above i.e. Condolences, Memories, etc..... you will need to scroll down to view the information for that page and to post a message.  I am seeing lots of views for the pages, but no postings and was informed that it might be a little confusing because all the pages look the same until you scroll down. :) ~Thanks for all of your support! Keep it up!
