Jimmy's Going Away Party

Brooklyn had an interpreter that she really loved.  His name is Jimmy Harris.  She was sad when she lost him as her interpreter in the middle of her junior year of high school.  Jimmy decided to enter law school in San Diego and the Center for the Deaf had a going away party for him in St. George.  We were happy to be invited.  Besides Jimmy, Brooklyn had many other "angels" that she was happy to see.

Jimmy Harris, Meredith Winn, Meadow Lisonbee and Marianne

Meredith asked Brooklyn to say (make that sign) a few words at the party.  Brooklyn had to stand on the picnic table so everyone could see her.  She let Jimmy know that he had been like a father to her.  She let him know how much she loved him and how thankful she was that he knew when something was bothering her and he could make her feel better.  They both wept.  It was an emotional time.  We will miss you Jimmy but we are so glad you were a part of Brooklyn's life!
