From Stacey Hamilton

I have put this off for weeks, and for that I apoligize. I was talking to someone the other day and told her if we could ever get over the feeling that we are bragging or looking for a pat on the back and realize that this is helping Karri’s family heal from this tragedy, we would post the second we do good. Even after I said that, it has taken me three days to do this. I am going to run down the list of things i’ve done for several weeks, and I’m going to do my best to post once a week. I have given candy to my church for the fall fest we host for the community on Halloween night, bought a backpack (2) and filled them with school supplies for kids in Africa, another project my church helps with. I have cooked for a friend that had surgery, cooked for 2 families that lost loved ones. Visited my dad while he was in the hospital, assuring him I do love him, visited with my brother and his wife when they lost their son. I try very hard to always offer encouragement to anyone and everyone i come in contact with. May the Lord continue to heal and bless the Okansen family.
