In Loving Memory
Debbie C. Martinez
Of all the special gifts in life however great or small,
To have you as our Friend was the greatest gift of all.
May the winds of love blow softly, and whisper in your ear
“We love and miss you Friend, and wish that you were here”
Deep in our hearts, your life is kept to love and cherish,
Not forget. No more tomorrow’s we can share
But yesterdays are always there.
A silent thought, a secret tear, keeps your memory ever near
In our hearts FOREVER

How Do You See Me?
Actress Olivia Wilde appears in the latest moving film by Saatchi & Saatchi for Italy's national organization for people with Down Syndrome.
The spot, directed by Reed Morano at Pulse Films, highlights World Down Syndrome Day on March 21. It aims to start a conversation around how those living with Down Syndrome see themselves and how they can be disadvantaged when people pre-judge them based on their condition.
