How sweet is this... Pam decided to make a donation in her friend's honor. These are the most comfy blankets that Pam made to donate, and a favorite in our house...and I am sure the kids will LoVe them! And since Leslie LoVeS kids...she is going to LoVe this tribute in her name! Very Sweet Pam!
Here is Pam's story...
Diane was inspired by the generosity and charity of Donny Osmond and she sought to find a way to continue with his theme of "Mad About Making a Difference" and she created--TAG YOU'RE IT. A beautiful tag was delivered to each person along with instructions on how to pass it along.
My tag has been passed to a very long time friend. She likes to tell the story that we met in Kindergarten, but did not become best friends until fifth grade. I like to think that we have been friends forever.
Leslie has loved children since she was a child. She was the official babysitter in her neighborhood. There was not a mother on the street that would not use her services. One family had a large brood and a few times I went along to "help" her. I have to admit, I was not the best babysitter, but I guess I was another pair of eyes, ears and hands.
Leslie had raised four wonderful children, she has volunteered as the director of vacation bible school for umpteen years and most recently has worked for an agency providing services to children in need. Leslie's children have continued with the theme of providing and caring for children. Julie has been to several countries this year providing Christian ministry to impoverished children. Katy graduated from college with the idea of teaching school and Melissa has just completed her education with a nursing degree. Melissa's goal is to work in the pediatric unit of a hospital.
To honor Leslie, I have made Komfort for Kids Blankets to be provided to children who may be removed from the comfort of their home and family.
Love, Pam
