To The Editor:

On July 19, 2012, our lives were forever changed.

We would like to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks to all those that made such a tragic time bearable for our family.

Whether you added us to your prayer chain, sent a get well card, sent a gas card, made a phone call, drove to Syracuse to visit, brought us food or gave monetarily, it did not go unnoticed or unappreciated.

A very special thank you to our family, friends, co-workers, employers, emergency personnel, medical staff, and the Tri-Town community for your utmost generosity and concern.

We also would like to thank the bystanders who chose to make a life changing decision and save Lews life.

It is also with a heavy hearts that we express our deepest sympathies to the families that lost their loved ones in the horrific accident on that fateful day.

Sincerely,

Lew and Marcy Lottie, Nicholville
