Hamel Family thanks community for outpouring of love and support

Dear Members of the Peabody Community,

We express our heartfelt gratitude for the outpouring of love we received from so many people since the sudden, tragic loss of our beautiful son Jack. The many expressions of support have been deeply touching and an incredible source of strength for our family at such a difficult time.

While we are heartbroken by this immeasurable loss, we feel incredibly blessed to be surrounded by such a large community of caring, compassionate, thoughtful and giving people. These qualities were important to Jack, so mourning in solidarity with this amazing community has been especially comforting. We are Peabody Strong!

We know that many of you will join us as we continue to carry Jack’s memory in our hearts. Again, we thank you for the outpouring of love you have shared with us in Jack’s name. We will remain forever grateful.

With gratitude, Andy, Maryellen & Andrew Hamel
