DEMPSEY SUE; WE LOVE YOU!

Everyone knows...There is another 'CAUSE' that is very near and dear to my heart. (The Dempsey Burdick Memorial Foundation)

In my fundraising & training efforts for Breast Cancer 3-Day; I have had the chance to meet the most amazing and inspiring people.

As of late; I have been working with a sterling silver jewelry company and have begun to implement their company and products in my fundraising events. Kele & Co. is a very charitable minded company and they have been so supportive of my desire to participate in the Breast Cancer 3-Day.

This morning I spent a good deal of time on the phone with Adrienne LeFevre; VP of Business Dev. at Kele & Co., she was extremely helpful and compassionate. We briefly discussed fundraising and then I asked her what it would take to perhaps have a specific and very special item created...

She let me share with her the story of my precious niece; Dempsey Sue. I told her that I had deeply wished to create a "Dempsey" pendant but after taking a metalsmithing class -to do so- realized I lacked the actual ability and/or talent to get the image in my mind effectively on to paper and then create a beautiful piece. (I have the "caveman-like" jewelry I created to prove this!)

I expressed my desire to have something created that would serve as a heartfelt reminder, a gift for those who had lost a child, and perhaps a way to raise funds for the memorial foundation--so we could continue to help other families in need.

Adrienne & Kelly...thank you so very much for allowing me to share my thoughts, ideas and our precious angel; Dempsey, with you. Thank you for sharing your company, ideas and beautiful jewelry with me!
