In her final months, Lonnie found deep comfort in a book that encouraged wearing red as a way to welcome joy into your life. She took this to heart and bought herself a beautiful pair of red boots, which brought her so much joy. (I’ll include a photo of them.) It was Lonnie's request for us all to wear red to celebrate her, we would love for everyone to honour this request by wearing 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔 red. It doesn’t need to be much, anything from a scarf to shoes, a purse, a sweater, or even red nails. Whatever you can manage is perfect.

The celebration will be held in an indoor horse arena, just as Lonnie wished. This space can be quite cold, so please 𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑚𝑙𝑦!
If anyone has 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 they are willing to lend for the afternoon, we would be incredibly grateful.

If you feel called to offer something, flowers, decorations, a reading, a speech, or anything from the heart, please message the Lonnie’s Heartbeat page.

We’re also looking for a few volunteers and specific offerings:
• Someone to help with parking;
• A few people to assist with set-up and tear-down;
• We are also looking for someone willing to contribute plates, bowls, cups for warm beverages, cutlery, and serving utensils for the potluck, disposable would be fine.
*Kindly message the Lonnie's Heartbeat page if you would like to contribute*
