Hey Garrett!! We're praying for you! We know you can pull through this because you are so tough. Get well soon!!! Jessie Meyer and Brittany Ruffner
Dear Garrett, I have been to this site three times and attempted to write this and as a mother these accidents make you realize how precious life is and how quickly it can change. We have been praying so hard for you since Tuesday morning. I have thought a lot about you and how much I admire you. From the time I saw you first as a baby- to how proud of the man you have become. I was most proud of you at Creation recently and the awesome devotion you did for all of us. You really impressed me that afternoon. I know that you will be impressing all of your Doctors and Nurses soon with what an incredible and amazing patient God has sent to them. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason...and this is no exception!! I think you are the healer that our church needs and you have truly brought people together again to support you and your family! Stay strong. We are all here for you and look forward to seeing you this fall on the field at Memorial Stadium where you are such a shining star! Stay strong, God is with you and so is your extended family here at home! Get better soon Garrett! In God's Love! Kym, Jim, Jenn, Kaitlyn and Austin Dorko P.S. When you get better I am sure there are 2 young ladies who would happily get caught in your backyard again by your Dad!!! To Larry, Dottie and Jordy, We just want you to know that we are here for you- ANYTHING- that we can do - don't hesitate to ask...PLEASE! You are constantly in our thoughts and prayers. We hope to see you soon. Love, Kym, Jenn, and Katey

Garrett, I had always heard about the wonderful "Pork" but I never got to meet you until we went to Creation this year. I'm so glad & I feel truly blessed that I was able to meet you & spend time with you. Creation was so much fun & you were a great contribution to the trip. Not only did you make friends with little girls, have them draw pictures of you & wrestle with me just about every day, but you were someone that all of us look up to in every aspect. You are truly an amazing person with a wonderful personality. You are in my heart and have my continuous prayers. I know you can get through this, we are all praying for you & you have God on your side. Love, Gwen Falbo

Dear Garrett, I was unaware of your accident until I read about it in Thursday's Tribune Review. It was shocking and disheartening news and I wish that I had heard sooner so that I could have attended the Service of Wellness and Healing. You are such a great young man and such an inspiration to so many other young people and to we older folks as well. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this very difficult time. God's love is all encompassing and he can do miraculous things. Your full recovery will be one of them. Yours in Christ, Mary Jo Johnson

Garrett, Hey man! This is Janelle Pica. I heard about what happened to you and I thought I'd tell you that I'm praying vigorously for your recovery. Isaiah 41:10 says "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Garrett, don't be afraid. Life is hard sometimes for no reason at all. You are being challenged by Satan. Don't give in. God loves you and He will never leave you. I'm praying for you non-stop, Garrett. I pray that you make a quick recovery and that you will be fine when all this is over. Also, once you are better, I pray that you grow in your faith and fully rely on God. I know you'll be ok man! Don't give up! God is at your side! Get well soon! Always praying for you, Janelle
Garrett - we will be using the litany for healing we used Tuesday during both services Sunday. Presbyterians are praying for you! - Pastor Christy

James 5:13-15 "Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O LORD , and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise. Jeremiah 29:11 "For surely I have plans for you, says the LORD, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope." Garrett ~ You and your family are in all of our prayers.

Garrett ~ I visited with you all day today. And I know that you knew I was there. You moved your fingers in my hand and even once grasped it tighter. You are one of the most determined guys I know. So many people believe in you; you've made an impact on all of us at one point, whether it be in chorus, football, church, brother, or just being a friend. After seeing you today I know you will pull through this. For as long as I have known you, almost 14 years now, there has been nothing that you could not get through and/or accomplish. I'll be praying every minute of the day, you are in my heart. As I read my yearbooks from the past 3 years, I noticed one thing that they all had in common...in each one where you signed, it said "To my girlfriend" and at the end "...my girl always...". I Love You. ~ Julie D.
Garrett, I don't know you well, but I've seen you at Latrobe football games, and am friends with Angelina, and from what I hear you are an amazing person. You will beat this, there is no doubt.

Dear Garret, "The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the protector of my life: of whom shall I be afraid? Whilst the wicked draw near against me, to eat my flesh, My enemies that trouble me, have themselves been weakened, and have fallen. If armies in camp should stand together against me, my heart shall not fear. If a battle should rise up against me, in this I will be confident...I believe to see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living. Expect the Lord, do manfully and let they heart take courage, and wait for the Lord." Psalm 26 Do not lose hope Garret. You are in my prayers Danielle Lesnock
