Kind assistance followed baby’s death

To the editor:

On behalf of the entire families of the Hope, Bova, Watson and Swentusky families, I would like to extend a huge thank-you and let it be known of our deep gratitude to everyone who helped our son and daughter in their time of need and grief. It was with a heavy heart and great sorrow to everyone, on the passing of the beautiful, beloved baby, Ryken. Thank you to the many who came so quickly when that call came in. Thank you to all of you from the Saranac Lake police and rescue squad-emergency personnel, to the state police (and especially the one officer who helped Matt personally) and finally to Ron Keough. Thank you all for the respect and compassion that you showed to Matt and Miranda in their time of despair and grief. Even though it “is a job,” each of you – even in some small way – helped them to try to carry on.

With deep gratitude,

Patricia (Bova) Watson
