Hey, just wanted to send you a quick note to say thank you for what you do. I saw you today at the Love’s in Boron, and got a much-needed hug, even though it made me cry. A little over 4 years ago, my husband committed suicide right there in Boron while I was picking up our daughter from a sleepover. Most people don’t understand what it’s like to be left behind, and I thank God that they don’t understand. But with that lack of understanding comes the inability to really talk about it and there is such a huge stigma. So thank you again for doing what y’all do. I love you guys even though I don’t know you. I hope to see y’all again one day and if there’s anything I can do to help spread your mission, please let me know. Much love and peace, Exie.

I carry heavy guilt thinking I could have helped several friends that ended their lives. I met Cory and Kelly on their bus in a small town near me. They’ve helped me process these feelings that I’ve tried to put away for a decade. They’ve helped me carry this weight. Everyone else I know thinks it’s bad to talk about suicide or talk about feelings. Thanks for putting yourselves out there, helping others deal with their feelings, finding new hope, learning how to believe again, learning that it’s possible to start over, wanting to quit drinking, wanting to let go of stored up anger, helping me not worry constantly and wanting to let go of resentment. Thanks to you two I’ve found some inner peace lately that I lost a long time ago.

I met Kelly and Cory on the road and their compassion for homeless and people who are not in a good place really changed my perspective on life. Thanks for what you are doing, you are helping a lot of people.
