Halloween 2008

This year we had a Halloween party. Most of these pictures are from that day. This year was the first time the kids really got to Trick-or-Treat. It was SO much fun!!! It was such a great time.

BRRRRR!

I didn't get to post until now but last week end 10/12 we were getting our first snow of the year. It's been cold since for all of you out SLC but we should be up to the mid 70's this weekend

(Enjoy your weather while it last you St. Geroge'ins)

Life is short - cherish what you have

I wanted to post this because it really hits close to home. We all know how short life can be and how quickly things can change. Cesar (a new employee at Crossroads) just recently lost his 3 month pre-mature child due to compilations. Our family has seen this first hand and knows how hard it can be. Luckily we got the positive side of the possible out comes. I think we are all that much more thankfully everyday. Please take a second to read what our regional manager had to say.

To All Employees,
As some of you may know, Cesar Valladares (groundskeeper for Crossroads and Palladio) and his wife were expecting a baby. A few weeks ago, Cesar's wife had complications and ended up having an emergency C-section at the University of Utah Hospital. Their baby was born 3 months pre-mature but was stable. His wife was in the hospital for a few days and was later released but had a severe infection to her wound. She was also told she would be unable to have any more children. Cesar had been working full time while also caring for his wife and child and driving up to the hospital every day to spend time with his newborn. Last Monday morning, Cesar received a call that his child was in serious danger due to an intestinal infection and was transferred to Primary Children's for emergency surgery. Unfortunately, the surgery did not go well and Cesar and his wife received the worst news a parent can receive and were put in a position to take his little girl off of life support last Wednesday.

Cesar is a very responsible and hard working individual, but due to this situation, he has been unable to work. Although, he has only been with the company a short time Wasatch is assisting him with Bereavement pay to help in his situation, but he doesn't have any vacation or additional leave available. We are hoping to raise funds to help Cesar out with some of the memorial services and other expenses he has. If you would like to help, please contact Eugenia Cascante cr.manager@netwasatch.com or 801-973-0794 and she can come and pick up your donation. Every little bit can make a difference for Cesar and his family, even if it is a couple of dollars.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.

If you would like to help Cesar and his family out please call me at 801-973-0794 or e-mail cr.financial@netwasatch.com. I can give you more information.
