September 18, 2014 Blog Post: Help Adoption STAR support Cuddlecot Campaign

October 2014 E-Newsletter Piece

Earlier this month, Corey Kruss contacted us via e-mail and shared the following message:

“I’m so proud to announce that all funds have been raised for the Mercy Hospital Cuddle Cot. It is presently on order and will arrive in Buffalo, New York within just a couple short weeks! I could not have done this without the love and support of my husband Matt, our families and our friends. I witnessed a community come together to raise money for such an important piece of medical equipment, and my heart is overflowing with the generosity I’ve experienced. As a mother in this circumstance, the most important thing I can wish for is that my son is never forgotten. We’ve created a legacy of love, tenderness and caring in Weston’s name. I couldn’t be more proud of him. I couldn’t be more proud of us. Weston Elijah Kruss – you are our magnificent sunset.

Special thanks to our big donors – Adoption STAR, TxMQ, Inc. and Mary Kofal/Hope United Methodist Church.”
