In April of 2010 our niece's friend found no alternative to living, and
took his own life. Ian Smith-Christmas was 21 years young and a student
at The College of William & Mary. Due to his affinity with nature he was
involved with the College's Outdoors Club, the Student Environmental Action
Coalition and the Botany Club. Ian also had another passion - the violin.
He played both Nordic Folk Music and Appalachian Music Ensembles. His
life reminds us to enjoy the little things in life, and have as much fun
as you can each day. Our donation to the Listening Heart Crisis Center
is in honor of Ian. We trust our financial support will allow others in
distress have the opportunity to be heard, to seek help and emotional
support.
