What a nice article.  Laura sounds like she was an incredible person and teacher.  I definitely will make it out soon to see this nice tribute you made for her.  Oh btw, you are a pretty incredible person as well.

I take my hat off to you Janine. This was an awesome article along with what it represents. You should be very proud of yourslf for the acomplishment and the meaning. This kinda hits home with me as I lost my mom to breast cancer 3 years ago last month.

God bless you.................

First of all...thank you Rick and thank you to all of you who have wished me well through this process.

Rick one of the reasons I took on this project because I lost my own mother to breast cancer in 1974. I have had my own really bad issues myself. The project spoke to me and Laura in her passing helped some of the healing for me in a bizarre way.

My only regret is that one it was done as a memorial for a truly fine woman who was very loved.

 

Thank you Rick!
