Elias' Dad - 2010-01-12
My heart and prayers go out to this organization and supporters for the amazing generosity it just showed my son! He just received a back pack yesterday during treatment and it just made his face light up! Receiving the gift during treatment really helped him feel a little more comfortable about getting treatment because now he doesn't see treatment as just a negative thing, especially when we have such a long way to go....
Thank you Nicholas!!

Sheila and Lamont, thank you very much for such a special evening at the Harlem Globetrotter's game last night. As great as it was for Sam to get out and have a fun evening when he could just be a kid again, Suzy and I appreciated getting to talk with you both and hear about your experience and share ours. People who haven't gone through this have a hard time relating to the experiences that we have had and the issues that we face. You both understand and we appreciate the compassion with which you engaged us. What you are doing in Nicolas' memory is such a fabulous thing. We all enjoyed ourselves and think the two of you are angels! Thank you!

Trevor's Mom, Lisa - 2010-01-21
Thank you so much to Lamont, Sheila and the Nicholas Colby Fund for such a wonderful evening at the Warriors game in honor of Trevor. In this long journey of ups and downs it is wonderful to have these special times with our son to just enjoy him and create a fun memory together. It was great to share the suite with all the people who love him dearly and who are helping us along the way. What an amazing gift.
Thank you also for the warrior mascot doll. Trevor has named him Lamont and wants to take him wherever he goes. I think it is safe to say that you make an impression on everyone you come in contact with, aged 1 to 101. You are truly very special people who help in so many ways.

Nicholas, happy 10th birthday!!!! we think about you often !!!! we love you !!! xoxoxoxxox
Birthdays
Are there birthdays in Heaven?
Does the angel blow his horn?
Announcing to everybody
That this is the day you were born?
Can the stars be your balloons
And angel food your cake?
Presents wrapped in moonbeams
All the angels helped to make.
Birthdays meant so much to you
They were always a big deal
Birthday presents, lots of friends
And perhaps a special meal.
So I'll whisper a little prayer today
Asking everyone up above
To sing you a Happy Birthday song
And give you all my love.

SuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuperNicholas,
Hello young man! It has been awhile since I posted, but as you know you have been on my mind quiet a bit. It is such a warm feeling to know the piece of you-you have left for us here is ever so present.
Recently I was talking to your dad, and he shared the wonderful activities they will be having at the warrior game for your birthday. It is a testament to the impact your foundation and your continual touch has and continues to have on so many.
Additionally, I must share from my vantage point, and the method in-which your father and mother are growing the foundation, I know brings smiles to you, and is devine w/your presence.
Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Birrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrthday!
We miss and love you.
w/love,
Gilbert Family

Thank you so much for the tickets to Disney on Ice. What a surprise it was when we went in for treatment and the nurse asked if Frances would be interested in going to see Disney on Ice. She had seen the advertisements on the sides of buses on the way to school and would scream with excitement each time. She was so excited to go with her friend Edie and during the finale she and Edie held hands, which was so cute.
Thank you for this opportunity to experience Disney on Ice in the luxury box. Frances truly enjoyed it and it brought such joy to her. From now on we will think of Nicholas each time we see or experience Disney.
With much appreciation,
Sarah and Frances Abu Shanab

The Martin Family - 2010-06-19
Thank you so much for the wonderful tickets to "Sesame Street Live!". Our son, Amani, was given the tikctes at UCSF because he is known as the resident Elmo fan. Amani is 2 years old and has been on chemotherapy for LCH for the past year. He was adopted from Ethiopia last April and has been in treatment since last June. The suite seats were amazing and Amani and his brother and sister enjoyed every minute of the show. Thank you for the beautiful legacy you have created in Nicholas' honor. We enjoyed seeing all his photos and reading his stories. Bless you and the amazing service you are providing to families. Thank you for birghtening the day of our little guy! Bless you and your family. Amani sends all his love.

I received tickets for the Justin Beiber concert on 7-17-10. My 7 year old daughter was DX with T-cell Luekemia 2 months ago. I am so grateful for the generosity that your organization has shared with us. She was so happy to be at the concert and her smiles are my greatest joy. Thank you for who you are what you do. May God bless you and keep you and your loved ones safe today and forever. Cristiana Fonseca my 7 year old says Thank you. (fonseca.lisa@yahoo.com) :)

SuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuperNicholas,
Hello! Have been thinking about you a lot recently, and this past weekend, your father and mother held the annual family gathering. It is/has become an event we all look forward to-to connect. Unfortuntely my family was unable to attend, but the pictures sent out from your mom and dad were very fulfilling. The small things we do as a family to ensure we know what the priorities are is what means so much...and was something you demonstrated seemlessly w/know thought or hesitation.
Hope you are taking easy on everyone up there w/your b-ball skills, as I am sure you are just dominating on the court.
"You want a piece of me".
Luv ya,
SD Gilbert's

Since our son, Brandon, was diagnosed with ALL almost a year back, our world just suddenly came to a halt. We have not attended any events as a family since then. Thank you both for your kindness and generosity that we were given tickets to see Warrior/Jazz basketball game and also your personal visit during half time. We are touched and inspired by your outflow of love and energy.
We had a wonderful time and the sense of "fun" as a family was heartly felt. We are planning and looking forward to fututre family events.
