I am a stranger who now follows and helps the the folks that Molly was so drawn to. Her life meant something, she moved people she never met to action in service of the poor. I know it won't ease your sorrow, but each year I will come here and remind you that we have not forgotten her. She has a legacy that most who live far longer never achieve. The lords blessing be on you and your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785067691102248622.post-73771703073950044912011-11-17T23:32:50.818-05:002011-11-17T23:32:50.818-05:00Some may pity me for my experience in all of this,...Some may pity me for my experience in all of this, but it is you that I feel sorry for because you weren't given the chance to see a child's eyes light up from being tickled and cuddled by Molly.haitian steel drum arthttp://www.galleryarcenciel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785067691102248622.post-81936978944046357402011-02-19T17:24:18.658-05:002011-02-19T17:24:18.658-05:00Although I am only 15, Molly has truly inspired me...Although I am only 15, Molly has truly inspired me to try and become a better person.

From observing their sadness and what I have read in her blog, she was a beautiful person. Every now and then God sends down an angel in human form. Someone surrounded in love who brings joy to those in need. This person was Molly. She made the decision to give up everything she had and give it to those less fortunate. That is what made Molly Hightower so different. She cared. We always say we will do this or that but never actually follow through. We hear about our fellow human beings who are suffering more greatly then we could imagine and do nothing about it. We only think about how we're so glad that we're not the ones in that situation and that its not our problem. They will get through it somehow. Well unless we step up and take action they won't. Molly understood that. That is why she did what she did. She went into Haiti knowing that she would get nothing in return but the satisfaction of doing something right. For whatever reason, God decided that it was Molly's time to go, and I know in my heart that she will enter heaven in peace, knowing she died doing what's right. <br /><br />Rest In Peace Molly Hightower....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785067691102248622.post-30398834961392521572011-01-05T10:12:08.611-05:002011-01-05T10:12:08.611-05:00I still think about Molly everyday - and so does m...I still think about Molly everyday - and so does my 19 year old sister.

It still makes me feel like crap that I lambasted and belittled all the media and corporate attention that Haiti received in the days after the earthquake. This is especially true since someone like you, who did more in seven months than I will in the rest of my life, gave the ultimate sacrifice for the betterment of humanity. I cannot go on because words are failing me right now...<br /><br />Thank you,<br />Shane Anderson<br />Alabama<br /><br />P.S.- I will re post this on a Facebook page that is in tribute to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785067691102248622.post-81938386513490554402010-07-21T01:24:28.576-05:002010-07-21T01:24:28.576-05:00Molly we are leaving tomorrow to visit where you w...Molly we are leaving tomorrow to visit where you worked and lived this past year changing the lives of many forever.

Molly's story has given me the courage I have been lacking to pursue my dream of working with orphans, and shown me the direction I must take to do so. I will be leaving for Honduras in June to spend the year working with NPH at Rancho Santa Fe. I hope that perhaps Molly's family may find some peace knowing that she has acted as an inspiration and that even in death she is changing the world for the better.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06956714385293474670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785067691102248622.post-36232946104939984042010-02-24T09:27:54.399-05:002010-02-24T09:27:54.399-05:00Please keep Molly's blog online.
