Kathreen Ricketson Memorial Fund

So saddened to hear of the tragic passing of Whip-Up & Action Pack Magazine founder Kathreen Ricketson & her partner Rob Shugg. They leave behind two children, daughter Otilija and son Orlando. My heart goes out to these precious children and their family.  I didn't know Kathreen personally, but felt in a way I knew her through her blog & weekly Whip-Up newsletter.  The love and enthusiasm she had for craft was infectious.

I'm not able to donate money at this time but I so want to do something to help, it seems only fitting to donate my craft.  I'm selling these four Angel Ornaments through my etsy shop.  All proceeds will go to the fund for Kathreen & Rob's children, Otilija & Orlando.

If it's in your heart to have these little ornaments and donate the proceeds please purchase them so we can do something to help together.  You can buy one or all of them, your choice.  Or if you would like to donate money directly, you can do that here, at Whip-Up.  I've also added a button to my sidebar which will direct you to the fund.

May this dear family always be united in their love.
