Thank you Beth for posting this.

Neddie was a truly amazing young woman and I feel lucky to have shared the time that I did with her. She showed a level of strength that is not often seen in a 20 y/o. Even as the leukemia progressed she did all she could to be with her sisters. She was there for back to school retreat, Fall initiation, bonfires and lunches. I am grateful for her efforts to be there because while it helped her at the time to be with those she loved, it helps me now as I remember her the way she deserves to be remembered. Strong, loving, funny, open minded, compassionate, living life on her own terms even as she left us.

The chapter had ordered more pins sold at LTS and I am sure they will order more when those are gone. The money raised will be donated to the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society in Neddie's name.
Thank you to everyone who has offered their thoughts and prayers. For the chapters in SoCal, thank you for your support. It is greatly appreciated. Information for the services will be sent out through email and, most likely, myspace.
