I dedicated beads in honor of the women of Chemo Sept 08...who are undoubtedly the strongest women I will ever have the honor to be "sisters" with. Together, we have forged an unbreakable sisterhood...all because we had started chemo at the same time for breast cancer. I could not have made it through treatment without these women and I love each and every one of them. Together, we will not only survive...we will prevail over breast cancer! I love you!

This ice cream cone bead below is dedicated to David Basch. The story behind it goes as follows: One day this early summer, I took a shortcut through a known disadvantaged neighborhood, and I saw David next to his car on the side of the road. I stopped thinking he had car trouble and asked him if he needed help. "Oh no", he smiled and shook his head, - "the car is fine. I am just waiting for the ice cream truck." "I didn't know you liked ice cream that much", I replied. His answer surprised me: "Not me. You know, there are so many poor families here and all the kids playing outside with little to do. So I'm always coming here and I buy them their ice cream." So I asked "you are doing this often?" "Yeah", he replied "it's the least thing I can do for them". This brief encounter that day is very inspiring and touches me every time I remember it. David passed away barely 4 weeks later. Troy Webster

My mother-in-law was a flaming red head that always spoke her mind. She developed cancer and lost her voice box. No longer able to speak didn't hinder her as she new sign language and continued to work and contribute to her community. She was not just my mother-in-law, she was my best friend. Her cancer returned 10 years later, this time attacking her lungs and we lost her but I will never forget the strength and courage this woman had to fight the disease and continue to speak her mind on paper and with her hands.
10/29/06 Post #000 007 Hello to my family in Omaha, NE and Baltimore, MD. The three beads I dedicated to the 3 women who made me who I am today. To my mom who always gave me the other side of life even through her own struggle. Though you were young you still made an impact on my life. To my Grandmother Pat, You taught me to use that six sense that God has given. You have also taught me to be true to myself and fight for what is right. To my Great Gradmother Louise, I can't put into words how greatful I am for your ultimate sacrfice to raise a baby girl. You put me through school and was always there when I needed a shoulder to cry on. You done good!! You raised 3 independent women in the right way. Though we may stray from time to time, you still taught us to love others, pray and seek God for guidance. For this I am truly greatful! You all are the true meaning of love!! Love you!!! Stonsie

Herzlichen Dank, Mozartgymnasium. Beads # 730 to 769 are dedicated to a group of people who are very special to me: my High School Class, the teachers and the High School itself. Only later in life do we truly appreciate the beautiful time we had and the precious gift of knowledge that we were given. Today is that classes first Reunion and marks the 25th year of Graduation. Unfortunately circumstances keep me from participating and I am sad not being able to join the celebration. But in honor of that day and to thank everybody for the memories and priceless experience of learning, camaraderie and maturing, I wanted to put this wonderful class and school (Mozartgymnasium) on the Love & Peace Project.
