Henry Family Thank you note
This beautiful message arrived in the guild email box -- further proof that our donation efforts are important and appreciated. Congratulations and thank you to our members who are so generous with their time, talents and fabric.
"On January 26th 2017 I gave birth to a beautiful little boy at the hospital in Cranbrook. Unfortunately he had trouble breathing on his own and as a result we were air lifted to the Kelowna hospital where we stayed for over two weeks. While there we received a beautiful quilt donated by your guild. It was full of bright colours and has blue and red flowers on the back. Although our little boy is now happy and healthy, I wanted to reach out to say how thoughtful your donation was and how much it touched me during the darkest time of my life. The quilt was used in the hospital to darken his incubator while he slept and is now used to keep him warm in his crib when he sleeps at night. Thanks again for your kindness."
