Dear Mary Reinhart & The Online Angels Group, Thank you so much for the wonderful box of goodies my husband & I received in the midst of difficulties & loss. After having lost my father unexpectedly on Christmas & having almost lost my husband a week later from surgery complications, your gift provided us with comfort & a reminder that we have been ins so many people's prayers. We received the afghan the same day my husband came home from the hospital. It provided immediate comfort as he was experiencing a lot of pain & chills-reactions from al lthe drugs he has been on during his hospitalization. Since then, & after another hospitalization for some minor complications he finally is back home & made it just in time to have been a part of his sons birth(Jan. 28th)! Now I'm getting to enjoy the afghan some as I attempt to get some rest after such a difficult & exhausting month & after having given birth to a healthy baby! Once again, thanks to all the wonderful Ladies who contributed to the box of love we received. the afghan is beautiful & will be a constant reminder to us of the love & thoughtfulness you expressed to us during both a difficult & a joyous time in our lives! Love Elizabeth Cox

Dear Mary, What an unexpected surprise! I am at a loss as to who might have sent my name in to you. However, I extend my grateful thanks to you for the package that arrived a day or so ago with the loveghan & many treasured gifts. I am not aware of the Online Angels that group or organization. Believe me when I tell you as I read the line that someone loves me, I was in the depth of despair everything had gone against me this week I thank you & the Online Angels for this unexpected gift or gifts. Could there be any way of letting me know who put my name in to you? Thank you so much for so many lovely gifts. Sincerely, Geraldine

Hi Mary, I went to Corpus Christi to visit my sister yesterday. Rose was a recent recipient of one of your wonderful On-Line Angels afghans. I'm sure you have so many stories to keep up with, but her husband was fatally stabbed on New Year's day. She said she took it right to her room and covered herself with it and went right to sleep. She has her little angel on her night stand. She loves the colors and takes comfort in all the love and good wishes that it was made with. She was having a hard day yesterday but that is be expected. I'm glad she has her afghan to keep her warm. Thank you so very much for your generosity and thoughtfulness and that of all your other Angels. Peace, Joy

but I would like to thank OA(a lil delayed) from the bottom of my heart for the beautiful Loveghan you sent to me. I was surprised and touched when I got the box. My daughter had told me some boxes came from OA and I told her that I won an auction item and that the cookbooks I had ordered were probably there too.so when I got back from the hospital from the pneumonia she brought them over and I was so surprised to find out I won another raffle..what a beautiful afghan.and then I opened the other box and found the Loveghan and angels and crosses..oh my I had tears running down my face reading it..never thought id be on the receiving end of a Loveghan and I tell you the love in that loveghan radiates when you snuggle up in it.it is amazing.I love it and my youngest daughter and I snuggle up in it many nights and watch movies together and now that I am back home it is on my sofa and I wrap up in it every night watching tv.so thank you thank you thank you for sending it..it really did lift my spirits as well at a time when it seemed that so many things were happening to my health and I was starting to lose my strength.its hard to realize when you sit and crochet those squares for the loveghans..what an impact they have when put together, like being touched from different people and different places.. all connected by love and caring ..it is a VERY special feeling indeed. Thank you sooooooooo much!!!! Hugs Trudie

Angels, I would like to, once again, say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I received another box today from OA for the Hurricane Victims on the MS Coast. It's hard to believe that these people are still dealing with some of the things they are especially this long AFTER the storm. The box of love will be delivered to them this weekend. I am getting to see first hand some of the things that this group accomplishes and it's wonderful. I love you all and the hearts you have. God Bless you all, Sew Blessed, Judy in MS

I just wanted to send a thank you for the very lovely loveghan. It was so beautiful. It really brightened my day. I do not crochet or knit, but I will be looking into other ways I can donate to others. This is a wonderful thing, and I was wondering if there is any way I could find out who the nice friend was that gave you my name. I would like to thank them. Thanks again, Nita Kreiser
