To the editor:

We wish to thank the EMTs, paramedics and Washington State Ferry employees for their diligent efforts. We also wish to thank our many friends and the entire community for their support through cards, phone calls or providing food or flowers at this difficult time.

Your show of love and support has given us greatly needed strength to help us get through each day.

With gratitude and thanks,

The family of Jack Sherwood Lees
