A few notes from those involved...

"I wanted to let you know Marissa's comments to me as she was holding the medal that was around her neck, "this is the most special thing I have received...I will keep this somewhere very special, it means to much to me."
She was so moved by the presentation and what it meant to the family. I am not sure I have ever seen a kid get the magnitude of something as much as she did. She was so honored and touched. Thank you for letting me part of such a beautiful tribute.
-- Jerri Wommack, Counselor- A.C.Reynolds High School, Asheville NC

"I must tell you very modestly that all the work on Eric's Award to date was paid for last night when I got to stand between last year and this year's recipients. What a terrific feeling to know that I had a small part in this fabulous effort to memorialize Eric and Brian. Thank you for all your support and efforts."
