PROUD TO BE HSD: Christopher, Aaron and Emily from Century High School

Students Surprise Classmate with Special Gift
Century junior Emily Richey shared the following story: "In July 2010, my mother, Katherine, passed away from cancer. At the time of her passing, my family was not financially able to put together a large funeral or even have a headstone made. The past few years have been busy and my family has been in a financial lull, so having a headstone made was pushed to the bottom of the priority list. Finally, two close friends, Christopher and Aaron, came up with an idea. Here at Century, we have access to a laser printer. Aaron and Chris used this to make a headstone for my mother because they knew she needed one and they are actually the most incredible human beings in the world. Though I've written a few already, it's incredibly difficult to find the words to describe the phenomenal blessing these two have given my family."
