Last February our world came to an abrupt halt, so it seemed. Much of the year was a blur, paralyzed unable to do much of anything. We learned much that February however, we learned and personally felt of God’s infinite love for each of us. Life does go on and it does get better. In order to move on and learn and grow from this horrible tragedy we chose to do what Shaniel would have done. We became advocates for Domestic Violence Awareness. We have come a long way over the past year!
Today as we celebrate Shaniel’s birthday we take a look back at the many things we have accomplished over the past year. We started out on this journey by supporting No Harm Done, a charity for Domestic Violence Awareness. This Face book page was started in honor of Shaniel, and also to bring awareness to Domestic Violence. We organized and held a walk to honor Shaniel and to raise funds for the Women’s shelter in Price. We have attended and supported various Domestic Violence Awareness events. We have become involved in our local Domestic Violence Coalitions, giving a few speeches over the year at Coalition meetings. We have already seen so much good come from our efforts. Even the smallest good is worth all the effort put into this. We would like to continue our efforts in bringing awareness to Domestic Violence by educating the public about Domestic Violence in hopes of preventing just one tragedy from hurting another family. We would like to thank all of you for your love and support.
Happy Birthday Shaniel!! Your strength and determination have inspired so many. It truly has been a great year!
