I finally contacted Vivette, their <br /> daughter, to get her approval, so as to prevent any bad feelings. <br /> My request, now, to Orange County, is to have a nameplate produced and placed on the existing <br /> bench, or a new bench, with the inscription: <br /> In Memory of <br /> John "Blackfeather" Jeffries & Lynette Coles Jeffries <br /> As always, please feel free to contact me at any time. If I need to complete any forms, let <br /> me know. Once the nameplate is completed and delivered, I would like to have an unveiling <br /> ceremony, and am happy to work with county staff as well as other community members, and <br /> will include family and tribal members. <br /> Best, <br /> Renee <br /> PS: In case you were wondering, a state budget is coming, maybe by the end of August. <br /> Renee A.
