Oh Soror... those are truly precious gifts indeed!
So far, my most precious sorority possession is my Zeta pin, but I have some items that my niece gave me after I crossed. She later went on to pledge a different sorority, so it meant even more that she could put her affiliation aside and buy gifts that would mean a great deal to me.

I still have a Sorority business card from a set my boyfriend bought for me back then (almost 8 years ago). He wasn't greek, so it was very sweet of him to do it.
My most precious possessions: I have a beautiful white handkerchief embroidered with a powder blue P that belonged to one of Five Founders of Zeta Phi Beta, Most Honorable Pearl Pearl Neal. I also have a silver goblet that was a Founders Cup given to our 5 Pearls every year while they were living by the NY grad chapter. I will donate both back to the Sorority in the future.
