Scott ALWAYS loved on my kids.  Brian and I have explained to Chance that we won’t be seeing Uncle Scott around anymore because he’s hanging out with Jesus now.  Chance said, “Can Jesus send Uncle Scott back to play cars with me?”  I said, “Not for awhile… but someday soon, we can go play cars with Uncle Scott AND Jesus.”  Chance:  ”But I like Uncle Scott.”  Me: “I know, honey… everyone likes Uncle Scott.”

Not only did Scott leave a lasting affect on his friends… but he left an amazing lasting impression on our kids.

I’m so glad Janet sent this.   Paxton won’t ever get to know Scott in this life, but he’ll have this picture to know Scott loved him too.

We miss you, Scotty!

1. We would like some idea of how many ARE baking cookies for the Memorial Service.  Please contact Janet Fraser if you are doing this.
2. We need help folding programs Friday at 1pm at Sunset.  We’ll need middle school age or older for this project.  Also contact Janet for this.  CANCEL THIS.  The printer is going to take care of all of this.
3. We need someone awesomely creative to think through some kind of scrapbook thing for the memorial service. We’ll need someone to provide a signature book for people attending and then would love to have paper people could write memories on, which would eventually end up in a scrapbook for the family. If you’re up for this… contact me.  Let’s chat.  DONE!!!

You guys have been and CONTINUE to be amazing in all of this.  

Thank you SO much.

We’re still getting the hang of all this and updating our process as we go along.

William asked me to post this:

Good Morning Everyone,

My apologies if this email runs a little long.
I have been delightfully overwhelmed by the responses to Jenni Clayville’s website call for volunteers to assist the Resnick family with their household projects. I believe I’ve gotten close to 30 responses-and they keep coming. As I keep getting response after response, my thinking and my strategy have changed about the best way to organize this project. Bear with me, I’ll explain and then I’m going to ask you to respond to a few questions.

As responses kept coming in, I was first struck by the depth of the sympathy and compassion for Holly and the kids. It is also obvious the Scott was a man who loved the Lord and who was loved himself by many. In the email responses I kept receiving, I noticed that all of you volunteers had a wide pool of talents – one that begged to be inventoried.

I also had this realization. The depth of the pain that I, we all, felt this past week for Holly, Kiel, Reilly, Ireland and Kelton’s loss – well, in a big church like Sunset or the community around us- every week, someone is going through the same pain, the same loss, and the same need for help. I wondered if there was a way to form this into something larger than what we originally envisioned. Keep that in mind going forward. You’ll see some questions below asking if you’d be willing to take this to a larger level.

So back to our project at hand:
What caused me to rethink my original concept of “self-organizing” this project was the realization that we had to take into account the family’s need for privacy. The worst thing in the world would be a constant parade of individuals taking the initiative and calling Holly to coordinate projects. So, after talking with Aaron Soule, we’re approaching it this way: We’re going to choose a weekend day, get Holly and the family out of the house for the day and sweep through and knock out as many pre-identified projects as we can. We’ll still be doing the yard work regularly and still do handyman projects when they pop up.

Skill Inventory
I’d like to take and keep an inventory of your skills. Please take a moment and fill out the questions below. Yes, you’ve already given me some of them, but please take a moment and resend this information in the format below.
· Reply to this email
· Go into the cells below
· Then, complete the skill inventory
· If you have trouble doing that with your email program, I’ve included a spreadsheet that you should be able to open, save and then send back to me.

I’m working on this project always mindful of two things:
· That this is a marathon, not a sprint. Holly and her family will need this help after the initial outpouring is over and receding into memory.
· I don’t want to over communicate, over email, and overwhelm you volunteers – and burn you out. If I’m going to err, I’m going to err on the side of not communicating to you.

Thanks again for stepping forward in Holly’s time of need – God Bless,  

Please email to William with “Resnick Household Projects” in the subject line and he will send you the Skills Inventory Form.

Ok… 

Ready… Set… GO!
