Thank You Spokane



On June 18th my brother Jarrod Lallier of the United States Army, 82nd
Airborne Divison was KIA in Afganistan. My family's world has been forever
changed. On behalf of my family I want to thank our wonderful community.
Our Providence Sacred Heart family has generously given to us, many local
businesses have offered up their services, donations, and time. Cheers to
you all. We are so thankful. Most importantly we want to thank our family
and friends, and the many people who have rallied around us who we have
never met before but felt it on their hearts to reach out. Whether we know
you or you are strangers to us, we are deeply touched and feel so blessed
and supported in this time of sadness. Jarrod loved his hometown. When he
called from Afghanistan he would often say, " Tell me about Spokane." He
asked us to tell him because he loved home, he loved this community, he
loved where he came from and was proud to represent our city as well as our
country. Our hearts will forever miss my brother as he sits in heaven with
our Lord watching over us. But we stand firm on our faith that we will see
him again. My family is being carried on the love, support and prayers of
you all. So thank you, we can never fully thank you enough. We are proud to
live here. Jarrod will forever rest in this place he called home. From the
bottom of my family's hearts, thank you. You have blessed us. Sincerely,
Jessica Lallier
