Just the First of Many — My mother teaching my broth-er, sister, and I, at a very early age, that we can rise to any challenge atop the sears Tower. over the years, my mother, Marie Waite, has taken the opportunity to teach all three of her children, Cristine, robby, and Georgi, numerous lessons using hand on experiences. even now working lots of hours, she still finds time to teach us to be responsible adults. While assisting with college applications, volunteering, or simply making breakfast one early morning, my mother shows her love for us in many ways. In addition to taking care of her family, my mother is the executive director of CoVe and is responsible for many other people. she leads by example by empowering families in our com-munity to live free of violence. back row: robert Waite, Georgi Waite and mother Marie Waite. sister Christine Waite is in front.

Mommy and me — Hanging out with our friend stitch! stephanie Muralt & son Trevor.
