Help Others (To Dos for Chris)

This is page 16 of the graduation album for Chris. When you read this you'll realize he should be the one writing the "to do" list for me. He was only 14 years old when he performed this very adult act.

"Your decision to join the search for the autistic boy lost in the Dolly Sods wilderness was an unselfish one. You truly wanted to help find Jacob Allen, brother of your friend Micah. You & Adam Raese joined 300 others, mostly adults for two full days of searching in thick underbrush. Everyone who joined in the search was a hero. You're pictured here at home shortly after receiving the text from Micah 'found him!' 2007"

Not only is this a truly beautiful story, the page is also quite wonderful to look at. I like the colours and patterns, especially the circular ones match the green background perfectly. Nice work!
