Jewell McFarland Lewis, Fresh Start center

[Debra Jones]

Long ago I started the posting about Jewell. She is a wonderful pillar of the community. Her donation of the Fresh Start Women's Resource Center in downtown Phoenix needed a suitable portrait and hoping to make my mark, I did it.

Her loves are the Superstition Mountains where her husband still farms cotton. She is an amazing woman. History is attracted to her. She was in NYC at the same time I was, stranded last September in the Waldorf-Astoria, and her husband actually saw the second plane fly into the tower. And that is only the latest chapter of her history.

The Fresh Start Center resides in her building. On October 4, with Mayor, Governor and family, they opened the doors.

Here is the final portrait. I will add a second posting of her with the family in front below.
