1 Salem Lutheran Church P O B O X H I T T E R D A L, M N J U L Y A Thank You from Tiffany (Busby) Peterson & Family On Sunday, June 24, the Hitterdal Lions sponsored a benefit to help defray medical costs for Cooper Peterson at the Community Center. Family members also organized a silent auction. Cooper s grandmother, Becky, attended church services that morning and brought a message from Tiffany and her family. Tiffany and family wanted to attend the event, but Cooper s health kept them from making the trip. Here is Tiffany s message. Hello Everyone! Thank you so much for coming today! Our family really wanted to be here with you, but Cooper s current health status is keeping us from making the trip. It is so touching that the Hitterdal Lions and my family are doing this benefit for us, and that all of you are here to support us today. Hitterdal (and the whole Ulen-Hitterdal community) will always be considered Home. It warms my heart to know that Coop is prayed for in Salem Lutheran Church where I grew up, and the foundation for my faith was laid. This faith has helped us through some of the darkest days. This has always been a wonderful community and clearly continues its tradition of caring for others. God Bless you all! Sincerely, Tiffany (Busby) Peterson & Family Al, Owen and Cooper 1
