Here it is, the day that the United States has been leading up to, for months and months. It is Election Day. It is a chance to make your voice heard by voting. I urge you to take time to vote today. Every voice counts. We are so fortunate to be living in a democracy in which we are given the opportunity to vote. There are many who do not get that opportunity.
I will not tell you for whom to vote. I can only say to vote. My prayer on this special day is that when Americans go to the polls to vote, that together, we will choose wise leaders for our wonderful nation, people with integrity, wisdom, and the capacity to lead and preserve our democracy. May God bless America now and always, land of the free and the home of the brave.
And on this special day in our country, it is a special day in a different way for me and my family too. It is the day of my daughter, Tobi’s burial. Thank you to all of you who have taken time to write and offer your sympathy. Just as you so often tell me that my words help you, I want you to know that your words also help me and our family. You are all so special in our hearts.
May God bless you and our fine country now and always.

Dear Marilyn and family,
I want to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of your daughter. I am an assistant principal of an elementary school and read your messages everyday. I send them on to my staff on many days. I also have a son that has learning disabilities and appreciate your words for the children of today. I am also a previous special education teacher as well. May God be with you and comfort you!
