Art Project for Karyn's Memorial Service

We would like to request your participation in a project for Karyn's memorial. 

Each one of us has special memories and special pictures from our best times with Karyn. We would like each person to put together an 8.5" x 11" collage to be displayed at the memorial. The collage can be anything:  pictures, drawings, words, paintings, pressed flowers,  anything. Karyn made each person she was with feel so special and so loved.  I know everyone she came in contact with has at least one photograph, or one memory they can write down and share. 

Please send the collage to me or Thet no later than Wednesday, September 6th. We are asking for a consistent size 8.5” x11”, so we can put the collages in a scrapbook after the memorial and give one book to Jim and Kathalijn Nelson and one book to Jules and the kids. Therefore, please make 2 copies of the collage. 

Since these pictures of Karyn are precious, please send me color copies of your collages so you can keep hold of these pictures. Please put your name on the back of your collage and briefly how you know Karyn.

Please don't be intimated by this project. If this is something you can't muster right now, no worries. The last thing we want to do is put pressure on anyone at this time. Only do it if it feels right and easy for you to do. If you just want to share a couple of pictures on a page, that's great. Karyn loved art projects so we thought this would be something she would appreciate, and it might be therapeutic for all of us.

It will also be great to see the many aspects of Karyn represented in these pages. Again, these will be displayed at the memorial.

Please pass this on to anyone you think might be interested in participating. I hope you all are doing ok during this challenging time. 

warmly,
