(Editor’s note: This letter is from the Reporter’s website.)

So glad to see this outpouring of support for not only a business owner, but a friend! This is such a hard-working, kind and generous family. I hope all of the community will dig into their pockets as much as possible to help this wonderful family in great need (especially until the insurance kicks in). I’m sure the expenses are mounting. They can really use our help and knowing Sue Lee and family — they would do it gladly for any one of us in similar circumstances. So happy to see there is a way we can help financially. What a deserving family. Just wish this whole incident would enable them to take some much needed vacation time away from work and stress. They can use it!
