IN REMEMBRANCE
OLOC has three ways for you to remember Old Lesbians who have died.
On the OLOC Memorial Plaques:
Have a Lesbian’s name plate afixed to our memorial plaques, which we display at each National Gathering. Include birth and death dates and a one or two sentence description of the Lesbian. We ask a donation of $20.00 (or more if you can).
At the National Gathering:
At each National Gathering we hold a ceremony to honor the lives and dedication of Old Lesbians who have died. The ceremony includes a power point slide show with photos of many of them. In 2008, some created a memorial poster which was displayed during the ceremony. You will need to send us a photo or two for the slide show, preferably by email, and/or create a poster. Watch the Reporter for details for the next Gathering. We encourage donations to cover the costs of the ceremony.
On the Web and in the OLOC Reporter:
OLOC provides space on our site and in our newsletter to pay tribute to Old Lesbians who have died. You can send your stories, photos or memorials about your loved ones for us to post and/or print. We only ask that you limit them to a reasonable length (500 words or less). We will need to have entries arrive electronically. If you don’t have the capability of doing it that way, find a friend who will send it for you. Take a look at the ones already posted for ideas about what to say. We would appreciate a donation, as it will help us continue the work of OLOC, including the website and the newsletter.
