Sister to Sister

"Beckie's Heart" Tribute

Linda Robinson (left) and Beckie Raupp at Linda's book signing in  2009. Beckie designed Linda's book so this was a special event for the both of them.

When Rebecca Carolyn Raupp passed away on July 14, 2010 from complications from a heart condition at 41 years old, her friend Linda Robinson wanted to find a way to honor Beckie's heart.  Beckie's husband asked Linda if she would like Beckie's jewelry-making equipment and supplies, as Beckie loved to make jewelry and was very accomplished.  

Linda contacted Sister to Sister with the idea to donate the proceeds from the sale of her jewelry to benefit the Sister to Sister Foundation.  This will allow all of Beckie's jewels, beads and beautiful findings to be shared with other women, while helping to raise awareness of women's heart disease.  
 
Beckie's heart - the beautiful glowing love she shared with all who knew her - will live on, doing good in the world by helping other women.

Examples of Beckie's Heart beautiful jewelry and the inspiration behind each piece can be found on Linda's website and blog. Here are two pieces of the work that she has for sale to benefit the Sister to Sister Foundation.
