I did not know your daughter but I feel like I did. You see my son is now a senior at PSU and he too was canning on that weekend you lost your beautiful daughter. She was simply a female version of my son, smart, athletic and good looking. They both have school spirit and loved PSU. I cried so hard when I read of her loss and read her high school yearbook phrase, don't cry because its over, smile because it happened. My son was class president at Connetquot high school here on long island and he ended his graduation speech with that phrase from Dr. Suess. I now have two boys at PSU and they are canning this weekend and so I wanted to reach out to you. I've always wanted to reach out but didn't know how. I hope to meet you at Thon this year since both boys are actively working as moralers. God bless you and keep you strong, she is beautiful.

On Saturday morning, around 3:30 am, one of our daughters called hysterically crying when she found out about what happened to a fellow Penn State student who also was on a THON canning trip. Even though our daughter did not know Courtney, she was deeply affected and crying for several minutes, repeating over and over, “I love you Mom and Dad”. We were also crying and deeply saddened by this horrible tragedy. Please know that your daughter made a wonderful contribution to human kind and brought love and light to many others. I speak for my entire family when I say GOD bless all of you and may Courtney’s memories bring warmth and happiness to your hearts.

One of my favorite memories of her was how she was so excited to help me plant a garden of iris' All the other kids were playing in the backyard and she was there right besides me planting a garden with pure joy. Its been many years since I last saw the family but after reading about Courtney its very clear she has planted many beautiful memories in all the hearts she has touched.

My heart, my thoughts, and my prayers go out to all Courtney's family and friends. I cannot find the words to express my sadness properly. Diane and Bill please know how truly sorry I am for your loss. As a Dad, my soul aches with you Bill. I hope that knowing what a wonderful young lady Courtney was and the good that she was looking to do somehow softens things. And I share this: Saturday morning as I stopped at the light on Park Blvd and Sunrise Highway in Massapequa Park in my postal truck there were 3 young ladies with cans on the side of the road looking for donations. Their signs were for pediatric cancer and I rolled down my window and gave a small contribution. The girl gave me a "Thank you, thank you VERY much!" I didn't notice a college or if they were THON but it brought a smile to my face. I hope the outpouring of friendship and love and all who have been blessed by knowing your daughter can bring a smile to your face. A sad smile, but a smile.

Lisa, Bill, Ashley, Kyle, and family;
Saw today's newspaper and recognized her name, then saw yours, Lisa. I recall Courtney as a baby born on my birthday back when we had play dates with my boys Ryan and PJ and the other Mother's of Malverne crew. Although I haven't seen you and the kids in years, I remember you all fondly and how much fun the kids had with our play dates. I recall you had my baby shower for PJ, born 3 months after Courtney, at your home. We are all so sorry for your loss, she was a beautiful young woman with everything before her. Our prayers to you all and deepest condolences. May our prayers help give you strength to deal with this tragedy.
Regards,
Carol, Rich, Ryan and PJ Hanrahan

Sunday, December 4, 2011
On September 11, 2001 I was working in New York City when I received a call that changed my life. While those around me were coming to grips with the collapse of the Twin Towers I struggling to understand how my youngest daughter, Katie could have Leukemia. I drove to Hershey in shock not knowing whether her cancer was treatable or not. We had no idea at that time how truly important THON and Penn State would become to us.
Like many we had seen and given to canners in the past without really knowing anything about what they were doing other than helping children with cancer. Since Katie's diagnosis we have come to recognize how truly important their efforts are. Katie has been off treatment for six years now and we honestly believe that this is in part do to the efforts of students like Courtney who care enough to give up their time and energy to bring HOPE to children and families who face the horror of cancer. Our hope came through the fantastic staff at Hershey and the unexpected caring and outreach of Penn State students.
There has been a lot of negative press about Penn State but students like Courtney demonstrate the true spirit of the school. Penn State and THON have become an extended family to us. Katie's treatment was long and at times we almost lost her. We will forever feel a debt of gratitude to the Penn State student body.
While we give thanks for Katie's life we grieve with you at the loss of Courtney's. We have come to understand the fragility of life and to recognize that it's value lies not in its length but in the impact it has on others. To us Courtney's life was priceless.
Thank you for raising a daughter like Courtney. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
The Katie Johnson Family
