What is Kindness Day
By Dr Joanne Cacciatore/ MISS Founder
July 27th is International Kindness Project Day, a day when grievers around the world from the U.S. to England to Paraguay to Botswana to Canada to New Zealand will come together to bring their loved one's presence back into the world so that they are remembered.
I never imagined, when I started the Kindness Project in the summer of 1997, that millions of kindness projects would be committed around the globe.
This project was born in my heart on Christmas eve of 1994. I knew I couldn't spend the money that was rightfully Cheyenne's on my other children. So I took that money and bought toys for underprivileged children, and I delivered them alone the day before Christmas. I dropped them off, wanting as much anonymity as possible, got back in my car hurriedly, and wept for nearly an hour.
It was bittersweet, though much more bitter than sweet at this point.
Some months later, I was in a shoe store buying back-to-school shoes for my children. I overheard a family debating which ones of their many children needed shoes more than the others. They all needed them, commented the parents, but they couldn't afford them. I found the store manager, bought a gift card with enough funds on it to pay for all the children's shoes, wrote on a little piece of paper "in memory of Chey", and I quickly left before he gave them the surprise.
It was only 18 months later that the MISS Foundation was born. I didn't name the MISS Foundation - or any of our programs- after Cheyenne. I chose, specifically, not to do that.
Similarly, I valued helping others anonymously, knowing in my heart that Chey's death had left me with a greater sense of compassion and agape for others, but not wanting to be recognized for it.
Truly, it was not about some act of nobility. It was pure love for my child, a strong desire to make meaning, and newfound- profound- compassion for others. I wanted to be her hands and feet in the world. I wanted others to know that this little child lived, this little child died, and this little child continued to matter.
And so my anonymous giving grew. And as it did, the paralyzing grief was balanced by something more numinous, more reflexive, and I felt something in the core of my being- something inexplicable- moving me.
At some point, I realized these acts- both the little and the big- were helping me to cope.
And, I thought perhaps it could help others who were bereaved.
Because simply, we cannot serve others without serving ourselves. We cannot give to another without giving to ourselves. We cannot bring comfort to another without bringing comfort to ourselves.
The Kindness Project was born about a year after the inception of the MISS Foundation. Born of pain. Born of compassion. Born of a love bigger than death.
And today, now 21 years later, it is much more sweet than bitter.
I invite you all to join us. For them. For each of us. For the entire world.- Joanne Cacciatore

Memorial Day Weekend
For many of us, Memorial Day is just a day off from work or school, but it also is a solemn day for those of us who served their country and lost our brothers and sisters in uniform on the battlefield. It is a day when we remember the sacrifices made by these heroes so we as a nation can always live in peace.
So as you go about your day off on Memorial Day on Monday, put out your flag, attend a commemorative ceremony, place flags in our local cemeteries on the graves of those who served or wear the traditional poppy. Let's honor the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
They were the sons daughters, husbands, wives, grandchildren and grandparents who are and will continually be missed by their loved ones.
Memorial Day is exclusively for honoring those who died serving our nation during wartime.
Sacrifice is meaningless without remembrance.

Happy Heavenly Birthday
Happy Heavenly Birthday Dawn Marie Sansone
TODAY… You would have been “40”..Yet in our hearts you are Forever “23”
TODAY… You would have been “40”..Yet in our hearts you are Forever “23”
Each day as I awake, You are still the first thought every day. Yet the happiness comes from all those who continue to honor and remember you every day
40 years ago today in Chicago at dawn you were born, what other name than Dawn was appropriateThat smile of yours filled our hearts with joy;
You were The 1st Daughter and the 1st Granddaughter. The Big Sister .You spread fun, love and joy to all that knew you.
You had dreams and followed them, you had just started your travels in life when
Sadly that cold night in November 2001 you were taken from us suddenly, At that moment life changed
forever …
As I have tried to keep you alive in spirit every day since, I still think of what you have missed, ,
You have missed so much Yet I believe you are watching it all,
You missing your 5 nieces and 1 ½ nephews. Yet they visit and talk of you like they always knew you..Your brother & sisters have honored you more than anyone could ever imagine
Having all Grand Daughters share your middle name has always been a warm blanket on my heart,
You tried so hard the couple years before you left us to get me to “Join” the Internet and yet 16 years later your name is #1 on Google..This makes me snicker as You may have some influence?
Our bucket list item checked off as we stood on the Corner of Winslow Az and the toooo many priceless memories I have stored in my heart
and what should have been some of your greatest years on earth..23 -40.
Today My Love I still sit brokenhearted and still wake every morning with the question of “Did it happen or was it a bad dream”..
With the help of Family and many friends we have continued to speak of you every day and keep your spirit alive, But the hole in my heart will never heal
I wish to thank all of you, who over the years have remembered My Dawn Marie, My Family, Friends and fellow Parents of Grief.
This is a journey that never ends, but is softened by all of you who continue to comment and share the love here.
What all grieving parents need and want is to know you remember and care
So please take a moment today and look to the sky and wish My Angel Dawn Marie Sansone a Heavenly Birthday
My Birthday Wish is that you are Smiling for the Angels and hosting a partyfor all the “children gone too soon.”
Your Daddy Misses you ………….
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAWN MARIE 1/2/1978 – 11/6/2001
Happy Birthday in Heaven <
I wish you were here today even for just a little while so I could say Happy Birthday "Dawn" and see your beautiful smile.
The only gifts today will be the gifts you left behind; the laughter, joy and “That Smile”... precious memories...the best kind.
Today I'll do my very best to try and find a happy place... struggling to hide my heavy heart and the tears on my face.
I'll sit quietly and look at your picture thinking of you with love; hoping you're doing ok in Heaven up above.
May the angels hold you close and sing you a happy song... and
I'll be sending wishes to you today and all year long.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAWN MARIE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAWN MARIE
