help her to reach out to others who are dealing with the stress
of life. She prepares meals for families through the Mt. Zion

Kathryn Bowen

Kathryn Bowen

the people perish. She’s an extremely positive person with a good
heart and integrity. Kathryn works with young people, directing
them to dream big as monuments and let no one cut their dreams

possibilities as a kaleidoscope with colorful fragments. |

Roxanne Johnson
|
Roxanne Johnson believes that young
women in our community need to stop thinking up reasons why their
dreams won’t work. She feels there are young girls who are so
capable of so much that we must be visible and present and stress
a conviction that they can make their dreams a reality. She is a
volunteer at Sun Prairie Middle School, a camp counselor, and an
active member of Fountain of Life Church; her actions help young
girls fly and become power brokers in managing peers, their
health, and their lives. |

Bettye Lawrence
|
Bettye Lawrence was never a teen
parent. Family, first and foremost, is the most important thing in
her life. She is an invisible thread that weaves her immediate
family — William (deceased), Karen, Robin, and Jasmine — and
upcoming generations together. Her grand and great grandchildren
think her actions and words are always so right. A Madison
resident for over 50 years, Bettye retired as a housing specialist
with the state of Wisconsin. A pillar in the community, she
volunteered with United Way of Dane County and the Vera Court
Community Center. Her 10-year daughter Jasmine keeps her busy in
her senior years, as she continues to nurture her dreams and her
star-search plans. |
