I am very sad and I still have my P.E. teacher and the class aide praying for Ella.

I worked on the talent show last year at live oak. I was instantly struck by the wisdom and innocence of your beautiful Ella. Her song and performance made a lasting impression on many of us. She has been in my prayers and the prayers of my husband as well. Bless you and your family at this very diffcult time.

Dear Glen and Deborah,
The neighbors on Peaks Pike held its first block party tonight where Jason told us of your tragedy. Since you are new to the neighborhood, we missed meeting you; we missed meeting Ella. All our hearts went out for you. We hope you all come home soon, so we can really celebrate.
Hoping 4 Ella and you.

Wanting you to know that though we haven’t met yet, our whole family is thinking of you each day, sending prayers and hope your way for Ella’s recovery as well as praying for you both as parents going through such a tremendously hard time. That you’ve shared your experience feels so meaningful, it allows others to hold what you’re going through closer to their hearts, so I thank you for that.

I cam upon your page through a friend, BJ…..Your daughter’s spirit is simply amazing. My 2 children and I watched her video today and were all smiling.
She is in my prayers and you now have another entire Sonoma County family thinking of you and sending you love and healing…….

I only met Ella once and remember her joy of life. I know her McKeon grandparents well and know the pain they are enduring. I empathize with all of the family and think of you daily. I await news of recovery and look forward to seeing her smile and joy again soon.

Glen, Your love for your remarkable girl is so compelling, so touching~it puts everything into perspective. On behalf of my extended family we are deeply sorry for Ella’s cancer, that you cannot hear her voice right now & for the heartbreak & weariness you, Aly & your families are burdened with. We are praying with hearts filled with hope for Ella’s complete recovery but in the meantime our hearts are breaking for you all.

Dear Glen and all of Ella’s family, i wish there was something good to say, but I am speech less. All I know is that you share so beautifully and I can only imagine, and yet, I am aware of how me as a mom to a little girl too, cannot come near or even want to come near, feeling how you feel. I do not pray ( even though I do not judge others for doing that as I know it helps many while dealing with life) however, I do not believe in a God or the image of a man sitting up on a cloud somewhere deciding if a person will do whatever we are destined to do ( which seems odd to me too) up and when, however I have my own ways that I hope will help Ella. I will see if I can at least find some ways to donate some more to you. I am deeply saddened and touched Glen, I want you to know that. If there was a way to send you some peace and some blessings in this email, then I hope it comes your way. I will do what I can.
