Message: I watched your presentation today at Avon Park High School. My heart was broken to hear your story as I was thinking of my own adult children and grandchildren. I have been a police officer for 25 years and I responded to an accident like this where one of the twin sisters was killed in the accident. The only difference is that she was the driver that was DUI. The hardest part was when I met the family in the chapel at the hospital to give them the notice of the death of a loved one. This too was when I found out that she was an identical twin as her sister was with her mother & father in the chapel. This was a very powerful message. Thank you for sharing this and God Bless you for being so strong.

Message: Thank you for sharing your story and for being proactive enough to realize having Eric there would impact the students more so than a stranger telling the story of her daughter being killed by a drunk driver. My fear- as a teacher- has become texting and driving and kids getting high and driving. I pray those kids in our auditorium today realize that those actions will kill them or others just as easily- as all the kids text and drive even more than drinking and driving- since they have all heard the don't drink and drive message...Your families along with all the families affected by the death of loved ones will remain in my prayers. Thank you for sharing in our little Sebring town. Praying not even one of our students will have to live this sorrow and praying even harder they are not the cause of this sorrow!!

Message: Your foundation is very inspiring. Renee's forgiveness toward Eric showed me that no matter what you can forgive. Sebring High School was extremely blessed that you could come speak with us all today. I know for a fact that you helped me choose an alcohol free life. Everyone involved with this foundation will be in my prayers. Thank you so much. <3
