Beverly Sunday

Beverly (on the Right) pictured here with J’lene Bradley (left) and Dawn Maracle (center) at the EM Ottawa Launch.

At the EM Ottawa Launch in January, I met Beverly Sunday. A gorgeous, charismatic woman who is working towards opening an Aboriginal Dance and Fitness studio, HAWK, in Hintonburg in April. Although I was walking around trying to get photos of each member, I was also drawn to Beverly with her sunny smile and enthusiasm.

Yesterday, through Twitter, I found out that Beverly and her husband, Joseph, were in terrible car accident on Friday, February 19th. They are both still in the hospital with head injuries, collapsed lung and broken bones. Beverly had just been to the Olympics dancing at the opening ceremonies and now she is fighting for her life. Please include Beverly and Joseph in your Prayers, she is Mom to three children and I just can’t bare the thought of them growing up without their Mom or Dad.

We are thinking of you Beverly.

EM Ottawa – February

February 18, 2010

It is hard to believe that the February meeting of Entrepreneurial Moms has already come and gone. And what a great meeting. Held on Tuesday night at Lagos we got to hear Shari Westman of Comfort Keepers speak on how and why she decided to start her business and how she has managed to keep going through the challenges of starting a company and raising a family. Shari was very motivating and wonderful to listen to.

Again another great group of women turned out for the event. There were a few new faces and I am already looking forward to the March meeting. My only hope is that I am much healthier than I was this past month.
