This is the Cristin Teardrop. Proceeds from the sales of this necklace will benefit the Cristin Bambino Memorial Scholarship fund.
Cristin was a friend from high school. Five years ago she died sadly from a seizure, as she was epilleptic. A scholarship has been set up in her name to benefit students of technical theatre, or , in other words, the backstage. Cristin was very involved in our High School's drama program, but never as the start on stage. She did the program crew, historian crew, worked backstage for the shows, and was the best and Nicest Stage Manager Ever. There is also a scholarship to benefit teens with learning disabilities who plan on attending college.
Cristin's favorite color was purple. This teardrop is to honor the sadness of our loss but help to turn it into something beautiful, both to wear and to help people start their lives and follow their dreams and goals. I feel a little silly that it has taken me this long to think of this, but at least it is here.
