After I was initiated, a family friend from the same chapter gave me her badge. She was initiated in 1919. She was 83 at the time, and had no children. She told me she wanted to be sure it went to a sister who would wear it and treasure it. I wore her badge and mine throughout college, and shared her story many times when others would ask why I wore two badges. She lived to be 99, and when she died, she had her 1932 chapter directory in her nursing home room, which was also given to me. I do feel it's better to wear it than store it, and that's what she wanted.
