Lisa Daehlin, opera and cabaret chanteuse in New York City--along with knitting artiste extraordinaire--is the daughter of an esteemed elder, a resident of Northfield Retirement Community.
When Lisa visits NRC, she often sings for us, sometimes accompanied on piano by her mother. Lisa shares her red and pink and white hearts on campus, even tying them once to our fence behind which are sometimes housed goats! I have wondered if the goats eat them or let them be.
Lisa is on a mission to "spread the love with crocheted hearts." This time, she's sending her crocheted hearts all the way to Madagascar!
#LisaDaehlinArtist & #LovePeopleBeKind are Lisa's hashtags.
Lisa writes: "I invite you to talk with me, share a story (perhaps a song), and I'll crochet a heart for you. Yours in yarn and song, Lisa."
Looking at this array of hearts to share overseas, I think of Holy Writ:
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son...so faith, hope, and love abide, these three. But the greatest of these is love.
