Since our son, Seth's, lawn mower accident on April 13, we have been overwhelmed at the amount of love shown to our family from so many people.

We have had numerous amounts of people praying for us, and for that, we thank you greatly. Mabel School staff and parents welcomed us home with an overflowing basket of food and supplies, Mabel United Methodist Church held a benefit yard sale on May 5, the High Country Horse Club held a benefit horse show on June 2, Antioch Baptist Church held a benefit singing on June 10 and community members of the Bethel area held a benefit breakfast on July 14 at the Beaver Dam Volunteer Fire Department.

There were many area churches, businesses and individuals who donated money, merchandise for the benefit raffle and their time. We do not have the words to convey our appreciation to the many family, friends, neighbors and unknown individuals for all they have done for our family.

The monetary donations have and will help immensely toward Seth's medical expenses. All the prayers have meant so much and have helped carry us through. We pray the Lord blesses each person for their efforts and acts of kindness. Seth has done well overall. He is scheduled for surgery to do bone grafts on his unhealed index finger and thumb on Aug. 9.  

We still have a long road of recovery ahead, but God's grace has been and will be sufficient.  It really helps when you are surrounded by a wonderful community, and live in the High Country where people truly care. May God bless you all is our prayer.

Jimmy, Sheila and Seth Greene
