I have gotten so behind when it comes to uploading photos! Since my last update, we have gone to The Fox to see Alvin Ailey, learned to swing dance, and gotten really into the writing process.

Joann Baker, F.AVE's adminstrative assistant, lost her mother this past Saturday morning. She left last Thursday to fly to London to be with her and had the opportunity to spend some precious last moments. The arrangements have not been made yet and she will most likely be in London for another two weeks. F.AVE will collect monetary donations to be included in a collective gift to her upon her return. Having to flight on such short notice out of the country can get to be a big expense, so we thought monetary donations would be most appropriate in lieu of flowers. For those who would like to contribute, please send your donations in care of our part time administrative assistant, Yvette Battles. Thanks for your support and prayers for Joann and her loved ones. |
