MESSAGE FROM
LORRAINE HAWTHORNE- MORRISON,
Vice Chair & Treasurer

Each day I strive to live as though I am the embodiment of my parents Mavis & Ephraim. They were caring nurturers providing us with a balance of the qualities that they themselves were made of . Their luminous smile radiated peace and joy in everyone in their proximity. In our beloved parents were united admirable qualities and quaint contradictions: they were righteous and reverent, but soft-hearted and compassionate; stoic and formidable, but comforting and protective of their own. For these reasons, and many more, we decided to endow a foundation under their name. This foundation truly defines the innate beauty of both our parents and provides a channel for education and health care for those who deserve it most. We will remember them as they were- vibrant, dynamic and compassionate with inner beauty that death cannot erase from our memories.
