This whole story is long but I will shorten it. Koleen Painchaud, a fellow quilter lost her battle with cancer and a quilt she made was donated for our quilt showto raffle off last fall. The person who won it donated it back to our chapter. We decided it should stay within house and to sell tickets for $10 each and your name would be entered in the drawing. We raised $760 and it was voted that we would donate to the Cancer Center for women who do not have money for transportation or meals etc. We were all excited and it was a blessing for all who gave and those who went to meet with Kim and Victoria and present them with the check.  Bob, who was their photographer,
 also posted our picture/article on their site,
