Carrie Fox You Matter It’s been a tragic time for my daughter, her father’s family and for many others in our community. Last week a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, auntie and friend was lost suddenly in an accident. Last week in an instant, lives were changed. In a moment, someone precious was gone. What can possibly be said to the family and friends at a time such as this? There may or may not be words of comfort from people who care. There may or may not be words of wisdom from people who have lived through a similar tragedy. There may or may not be opportunity to reach out and com- fort those in their grief. One thing among many that can be said is that Carrie matters. In trying to support my child through the loss of her treasured aunt, I have listened to her speak to me of how wonderful she was. As Meaggan sobbed in my arms she told me about the happiness she brought to her family. What a role model she was with her marriage and her motherhood. Carrie mat- tered to her family and friends in all the ways you can imagine. As Meaggan scrolled through Facebook in the days following her passing, I was blessed to see people posting the happiness Carrie brought to their lives. One said it best when they posted that she was like a bolt of lightning when she walked into a room, red hair and an infectious laugh. Carrie matters to her family and friends because she is a precious part of their existence. Her life is a testament to all of us that a fiery spir- it is infectious and that in the end, to have been loved as much as she was and to love as well as she did, we can all hope to achieve that legacy. Carrie matters to the rest of the community because her passing reveals a message. If you have been affected by her loss or if you have experienced a loss similar to hers, you understand a thing or two about our time here. Time on Earth is finite. There is no telling when and where you or your loved ones will pass from this earth to wherever it is you believe you will be after you are gone. If someone you love leaves this place too soon, what would you regret not saying? What would you regret leaving undone? What would you regret not making right? Tragedies such as these foster amazing things. Carrie matters because her passing triggers the knowing that life is precious, some- times short and always unpredictable. The passing of good people evokes the realization that when they are gone, you are filled with love. You are over- whelmed with love for the one who has gone on before you and you renew your love for the ones who are left behind. Carrie matters because I Faydra Rector You Matter have seen her passing ignite compassion and love in her family and friends. I have seen a surge of appre- ciation for family and friends among those who knew her. Be like Carrie. Evoke love from others. Let your fiery spirit enter the room with you and impact everyone with your laughter and positive presence.

THIS WILL APPEAR IN THE D NEWSAILY RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY Saturday, June 11th More Tehama program, the students were given the opportunity to see what people mean when they say, “You are going to college.” Although the 8th graders are four years from high school gradu- ation, they need to be aware of what is avail- able to them during and after high school, said Harold Vietti, executive director. Patricia Ellis, their teacher, spent the day with the students and observed the changes to the university. “There are so many changes since I was there, and the opportu- nities for these students seem endless,” she said. Vietti added that when these students pass both California exit examinations as 10th or 11th graders, they are sent to Shasta College at the school’s expense for up to two classes per semester just to get them started on their college experience. Vietti and Ellis are graduates of CSUC. After the tour of the campus, the students enjoyed lunch at a local pizza restaurant in Chico. Amanda Rogers, their teacher’s aide, com- mented after lunch. “I enjoyed hearing several students say that they are now really interested in going to Chico State,” she said. “We just plant the seed!” eScholar Academy is a WASC accredited school and a division of Mineral School.
