Angels of Hope - By Bill Morrow


TUCSON (Observer Update) - Angels of Hope, was the theme of a display at the Brown home in Winterhaven this year. Jeffrey Brown, creator of the Aids Ribbon Tucson project and his parents Stanley and Shirley, have been decorating their home on Christmas Avenue now for more than 40 years.

This display features a three story high red ribbon, extending out 120 feet, on to which visitors were encouraged to inscribe their personal messages of hope.

Each year, an estimated 100 thousand visitors travel through the Winterhaven community to view the Festival of Lights, and many stopped to observe the display. One of five children, Jeffrey and his parents were recently featured in Wingspan's Families You Know presentation.
