• Brooks/Welsh families
  • Wyatt (L) was injured, and Taylen (R) Brooks was killed

The Brooks and Welsh families want to gratefully thank everyone, near and far, for all the support, love, prayers, and generosity.

Thank you for surrounding us as we began the journey through this horrific tragedy, unlike anything one could possibly imagine or prepare for. It was made just a little lighter for us because we did not have to go through it alone.

Beginning with the Sierra Chaplaincy caring for our needs at both hospitals, the pop-up music shows, the love-filled music benefit in Camino, the wonderful community spaghetti feed, the heart-hitting baseball fundraiser, the incredible truck fundraiser, and all the visits, meals, and cards from friends and family.

To the El Dorado Community Foundation, we could not have done this without you being the safe, sound, and secure financial vehicle for people to donate through.

To Marshall Hospital and UC Davis Medical Center, Green Valley Church, Dignity Aesthetic Center, EDSO, and Medic 61 First Responders – words cannot adequately express our appreciation for the genuine love, care, and professionalism you all extended to us.

We are eternally and profoundly grateful to this community and everyone who loved us through this indescribably difficult time.

Sincerely,
The Brooks and Welsh Families
