Big Beautiful Life Book

Addi, 15A1, taught us all to choose joy and live a big beautiful life filled with courage, devotion and resilience. She lived a life of unparalleled passion and purpose, constantly bringing people together, making us believe in possibilities and reminded us to always take care of each other. She had such a ripple effect, changing and inspiring the people and communities she drew to her. I frequently hear  about Addi’s profound impact on each of you AND people who never even met her tell me they are deeply moved by her story.  I feel responsible and honored to continue to spread her story to those who need to hear it.  One way I am doing that is to write a book.   Just like Addi was everyone’s child, this is everyone’s story and it wouldn’t be complete without her family and community’s voice.  Please join me by reflecting and writing about your memories - and especially how Addi impacted your life or those around you, what you learned from her, how you will honor her memory into the future or whatever comes naturally.  I would like to include your story and your voice within the book.  Also, pass this along to anyone else you think may want to be included.  Proceeds will be used to support Essex Fire Department. I’ll keep you updated on progress.
