We're not surprised. We're very grateful, but not surprised that the fundraising benefit hosted by Gilbert Lutheran Church, in Kyra's honor, was so uplifting.
Kyra, grinning and giggling, loved being the center of attention. Oblivious to the fact that the people surrounding her didn't know each other, she greeted everyone with joyful abandon.

People from Gilbert Lutheran Church came to the event in great numbers, as did people from Gilbert Community Schools.
 |
| Silent Auction / Bake Sale |
People that Kyra knows through social service agencies, horseback riding lessons, Special Olympics, and mom and dad's work came.
 |
| Pony rides |
People from other churches, no church at all, her sisters' friends, their families, our rural neighborhood, and relatives she hasn't seen for many, many years came, too.
 |
| Pulled pork, lemonade, homemade ice cream |
The people that came didn't know they were connected in one great circle. Now they do. Because that's what Kyra does.

Peace.
