Notes From The Families

This will be a new addition to the Colorado Fallen Heroes blog. Notes from the families of our fallen heroes will be added to the blog, but only after I receive their permission.
Here is the gracious note I received from the mother of Cpl.Jason La Fleur.
Roslyn,
I wanted to let you know that I got the quilt Saturday. It is beautiful and takes my breathe away. Thank you so very much for this beautiful quilt. I will be wrapping myself up in the cold evenings and remembering your kindness and the kindness of all who contributed to this very special quilt.

I am constantly touched by the kindness of strangers who honor and remember our service members.

Please pass along my gratitude to all who participated and created this special quilt.

Thank you again so very much.
