  • Thank You Letter

    John Travolta and Kelly Preston, who are residents of Ocala, Florida, issued an open letter of thanks to their community via their local newspaper. The letter thanks their neighbors, the residents of Ocala, for their love, prayers, support and condolences.

    The enormous amount of love, support and condolence we have received from this community has been most humbling. Comforting words, thoughts and prayers of Ocala's citizens have made an impossibly painful situation, a little less painful.

    The actions of Ocala's community leaders, its law enforcement professionals, our neighbors at Jumbolair and its surrounding communities have offered us the dignity to grieve the loss of our son and Ella's brother in peace. For this we will always be grateful.Perez Hilton: Travoltas Issue a Gracious... (January 12, 2009)
