On behalf of the Board of Directors, staff and students of the Children's Developmental Center of Lima, I would like to thank Beth and Ben Sehlhorst, their family and friends, for the donations to our Center in memory of Kevin
Sehlhorst.

Kevin attended our Center from 2012-2015 and he touched all of our hearts with his smile and personality. We loved our time with him at CDC and were
so very sad to hear of his passing.

We quickly could see that Kevin also touched and inspired many others in your community by the donations that we have received in his memory.
