Loss is a tragic experience, and unfortunately part of this industry and many others. The lives lost will be remembered and our hearts and prayers go out

to each family. You can click on each picture or the link in the text box to find links to the stories regarding these fatalities.

The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not 'get over' the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again, but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you

want to.

~ Elizabeth Kubler-Ross and John Kessler

Individual donors were PLENTIFUL!

Due to some of the individual donors not wanting to be listed, we will not list individual names. We are a grassroots organiztion,

and we greatly appreciate the money spent by those field workers in the industry spending their hard earned money towards our

families!

A little less than half of our funds are because of YOU!

It’s a Hubble Christmas 2015!

This year many of you donated, and we were able to provide Christmas for 25 children, including a little

something for each of our students.

Christmas can be a very emotional time for these families, especially the ones with very current losses. Often times,

worker’s compensation, insurance, or other monetary means take longer than anticipated to reach the families,

and even then it is sometimes not enough.

In addition, we found families this year we had not been able to locate. Some of these families have had harrowing

struggles since the death of their parent, and not all of them are in the best place, even years after their loss.

YOU all are responsible for making the season a little brighter!

THANK YOU!

Georgia on Our Mind…..

Georgia Golf Tournament!

In October 2015, GWA hosted their annual Golf Tournament. We were blessed and humbled to be included in their list of charities this year! We visited the

tournament and had a fabulous time with all of the awesome people at GWA! We are also blessed to report, that from that tournament, GWA provided the

foundation with $7000.00 towards keeping the foundation a reality! All proceeds were placed into the scholarships, families, and general accounts!

THANK YOU GWA !

AVAILABLE!)
