Bette Stone [D/43] - Hi Mark, You too Ann and Patty!
Enclosed find a couple of pictures from Jim’s Memorial
Service last July 23, 2011 [on my birthday, Bette], Was
a lovely service by the Legionnaires. Just wrote Mary
Sathrum a letter. I cleared out my address book and lost her
address. Opal called me to ask to donate to make money. I
told her to send it to the Museum for August Reunion. It is a
white one with lovely insignia on back. It was hers but she
prefers Glensis so wants someone to buy it and give money
to the Museum. She gave me Mary’s address. Better close,
hope you are all well.
CHAPLAIN’S CORNER: FROM THE NATIONAL
CHAPLAIN: Dr. Charles W. Edwards, Jr.
YOU ARE SPECIAL. DON’T EVER FORGET IT. A well-
known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $ 100
bill. In the room of more than 200 people, he asked, “Who
would like to have this $100 bill?” Hands started going up.
He said, “I am going to give this $100 to one of you, but
first, let me do this.” He proceeded to crumple up the $100
bill. He than asked, “Who still wants this $100 bill?” Still
the hands were up in the air. “Well,” he replied, “what if I
do this?” And he dropped it on the floor and started to grind
it with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
“Now, who still wants it?” Still the hands went into the air.
“My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson
today and one that hopefully you will never forget. No
matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because
it did not decrease in value.” It was still worth $100.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled
and ground into the dirt by the decisions we made and the
circumstances that come our way. We may feel as though
we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what
will happen in this life, you will never lose your value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or what will happen in this life,
you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or
finely creased, you are still priceless to those who love you.
The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who
we know, but by who we are. We are Disabled American
Veterans, we are special, and let us never forget it. Yes, let
us count our blessings and not our problems.
ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL: With
the promise of projects like the Pediatric Cancer Genome
Project and the upcoming new Tower construction - which
will begin in early 2012. A Proton Beam Therapy facility
offering the most precise form of radiation therapy in use
today. The approach is being studied as a way to maximize
therapy benefits while minimizing damage to healthy
tissue. The new Global Education and Collaboration Center
(GECC) will be a modern medical and scientific data re-
trieval facility with advanced visualization and communica-
tion capacity. A hub for the St. Jude scientific community,
the GECC will be an incubator for multidisciplinary and
translational research.
There will be a dedicated floor for their world-class pro-
gram in computational biology. This department is vital
to the success of the Pediatric Cancer Genome Project,
sifting through the enormous amount of data to identify the
genetic alterations central to cancer. These discoveries are
likely to lay the foundation for a new era of more targeted
therapist.
The facility also will feature an expanded surgical unit
and intensive care unit (ICU) which will add 50 percent
more space for surgery and provide each ICU patient room
with an adjoining parent room. The new tower also will
provide new space for a proposed graduate education
program, which will allow St. Jude to educate and train
students in the research for cures of the most challenging
pediatric diseases.
INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENTS: St. Jude is home to
many of the best and brightest minds in pediatric research
and medicine. I am pleased to let you know that several in
our faculty received special recognition this year. Brenda
Schulman, PhD, a member of our Tumor Cell Biology and
Structural Biology departments, was joint winner of the
Protein Society’s 2011 Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Award.
The award recognizes exceptional contributions in protein
science, which profoundly influences the understanding
of biology. Schulman has been named a Pew Scholar in
Biomedical Sciences, earned a Beckman Young Investigator
Award, and received the Presidential Early Career Award
for Scientists and Engineers, the highest honor that a young
scientist or engineer can receive in the United States.
Martine Roussel, PhD, Tumor Cell Biology, has been
named to the 2011 class of Sciences. Founded in 1780, the
American Academy of Arts and Sciences is an independent
policy research center that conducts multidisciplinary
studies of complex and emerging problems. The academy’s
elected members are leaders in the academic disciplines, the
arts, business and public affairs with a current membership
of 4,000 American Fellows and 600 Foreign Honorary
Members.
Raul Ribero, MD, Director of the St. Jude International
Outreach Program, received the Paul P. Carbone Award in
International Oncology from the International Network
for Cancer Treatment and Research (INCTR). The honor
recognizes outstanding contributions to oncology or
cancer research in one or more developing countries by
an individual from a resource-rich country. Ching-Hon
