To the Community of Collinsville:
Words escape me and seem inadequate to truly express my gratitude to the students and faculty at Collinsville Schools, as well as the entire community. The outpouring of thoughts, prayers, and generosity shown to me over the past months have left me stunned and truly humbled. I cannot or will not ever be able to say thank you enough. Brian was honored and proud to be a teacher and coach at Collinsville, but more than that, he knew he was a part of an extended family that embraced him. Brian loved his hometown and would be overwhelmed to see how much he was loved in return. I promise our girls will be raised knowing what the people of Collinsville have done for us and the head start afforded them because of your generosity. I wish there was a way for me to thank each and every one of you personally, but because that is not possible please know that I appreciate your kindness and know the girls and I are so blessed to be part of this community.

With Love,
Ashley Phillips
