Thanks for taking the time to share such a lovely story. Makes us all feel warm and fuzzy to think that young man was so appreciative and will have something to comfort him for life. Thank you for all the work that went into it too.

All he could say is this took a really all time to make and that he will cherish it. It just made me all :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D on the inside. The label I even gifted to him.
