To all who contributed big or small to the “Crazy for Candace” benefit fundraiser onApril 20 at the Howell Fire Department, thank you, thank you all.
My name is Margaret Widner, the mother of little Candace. Both my husband, Andrew, and I want to thank everyone for making it a huge success. Without all the love and support from family, friends, business owners and the Howell community, this would not have been possible. Thank you for the adoration that you have shown to our family.
The fundraiser was amazing and a huge success. It has been an unbelievable experience for us, in more ways than one. People who have never met us or Candace came together to create a wonderful moment in our lives. There are no words to describe the amount of generosity … the hall was filled with hundreds of marvelous gift baskets. The energy that surrounded us was filled of love, hope and dedication.
We try to find the words to express our feelings, but it’s too much to take in all at once. The only words that we can say are thank you! The words thank you are so small but truly they come from the heart.
We know that we still have a number of challenging months ahead of us, but with all the prayers, love and the thriving positive energy, Candace will do very well. She is too young to understand what is happening, but yet realizes that people love her so much.
Once again, thank you.
Andrew, Margaret,
Candace and Matthew Widner
