Giles, I received the notice from PayPal about the payment. I had my second hand surgery today and it was good to get this news. I continue to be amazed and humbled at the generosity of the Iron Heart forum members. All of you are close to my heart and as we prepare for Easter, I especially remember all in my prayers. Thank you again so much. Bernadette

Hello Giles, Since it has been a few weeks since we have “talked”, I hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying a great Easter season. Thank you so much for the payment. Since we last communicated, I have had both my hands operated on for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and this coming Monday, I am having a total knee replacement. I will have to be in the regular hospital for a few days because of my heart problems and then I will be recovering in a rehabilitation center for a few weeks. I will still be able to receive your e-mails on my phone. I was wondering if you were able to post my letter to the Forum members. I can’t begin to reiterate how much it means to me that all of you have shown such kindness. Bernadette

I’m so glad to start my weekend with a message like this. I hope she recovers well. We make annual contributions to American Heart Assoc, Save The Children (shout out to Luciana!), St Jude’s Children’s Hospital and every store check out request we come across but having a first hand relationship with someone touched by both tragedy and outreach is really a cool perspective.

I’d like my epitaph to read “Matt Raspa…Pretty Much Only Liked By a Canadian.”

Dear Giles, I’m sorry for not being in touch for so long, but I am recovering from a total knee replacement which was more complicated than expected. During the surgery, as they were trying to cut out the old bones, one shattered and in the end, a 1 ½ hour surgery took 4 ½ hours. I spent 3 days in the hospital and then was moved to a skilled nursing center for 2 weeks. I am finally home and am slowly getting caught up on e-mails, tele messages, etc. I know I have said this before, but I am so grateful to you and the other members of the forum for all you have done following Mike’s passing. These past 4 months have been extremely difficult especially with my health issues. It’s hard having Alissa and my grandchildren so far away. Except for my brother and a couple nieces and nephews, I rely on my friends for support. What you have done for me and Mike’s memory are unbelievable. I hope you don’t mind me telling you thank you so much, but I just want you to know how grateful I am. Bernadette
