#PrayForLydia
As many of you know I often talk about what a wonderful gem Herrles Market is in our community. When young Lydia Herrle was involved in the Erb Rd accident last week and rushed to Sick Kids hospital, a community came together to support the Herrle Family.For updates from the family you can follow their twitter feed https://twitter.com/#!/herrlesmarket
I've also set up a page with updates on facebook https://www.facebook.com/events/297535526999626. For those not fully aware of why there are Lime Green Ribbons all over Waterloo Region, I've posted a lot of info here http://1gooddeed.tumblr.com/post/23383903670/prayforlydia-we-hope-you-will-continue-to-keep
Please continue to keep Lydia Herrle in your thoughts and prayers.
