Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor,
As Nolan’s first birthday arrives, we are flooded with memories and overwhelming appreciation of what the last year of our lives has brought.
As Nolan battled prematurity, multiple surgeries and a long stay in the NICU, we never expected the amazingly kind gestures that arose

Nolan, son of Steve and Amber Schmidt of Madison, was born on Oct. 3, 2012. Grandparents are Don and Judy Postma of Sioux Falls and Albert and Mike Schmidt of Woonsocket.

from friends, family, co-workers and people within the community. The generosity was overwhelming and more than one can even imagine. We have been truly blessed with the love and support from everyone  in our community, and we know we live in an amazing town that no other can compare.
We want to extend a giant amount of appreciation and gratitude to Amber’s softball team and our friends who put together the Quarters for Nolan event back in January after Nolan got to come home, to the people who donated or purchased items at the fundraiser, those who gave privately, and to the people who had us in your thoughts and prayers.
This has been one tough, mentally exhausting, amazing and fast year; and we will never be able to fully thank all the people who have touched our lives and hearts. But please know we are forever grateful for your love and kindness.
Amber, Steve
and Nolan Schmidt
Madison
