Remembrances

December 5, 2008 - As many of you know, late last night Devon Lam got her wings. In her short time here, Devon touched so many lives. Her story, her spirit and her smile have changed the way that many see the world.

Thank you for your support of the Lam family throughout this tremendously difficult time. Devon and her parents drew strength and relief from all the postings and the thoughtful gifts sent from families and teams all over the country. We send a special thank you to the Temple Women's Lacrosse team, who has surrounded the Lam family with so much love, support and laughter.

In this dark time, there is a silver lining. Devon is at peace and has left this world a much better place than when she arrived. People all around the world uni ted in support of Devon, whether they were close friends or complete strangers. For this, we are thankful. Devon has opened our hearts and eyes and has bonded us together as a community.

We will be forever grateful for her life, the lessons she taught us, and the joy she brought to everyone she knew.

With thanks and hope,
Denis and the FOJ family
