Received Letters Quote by Ora-Jay Eash
““We also received letters from out of state, one of which invited us to be part of an Amish circle letter for those who lost a child. Those letters brought the most healing. Parents would talk about the child they lost. Every time those letters came, Ora Jay and I would sit down and read them. We were always touched by the sentiments and the transparency of the writers.””
