"Good people leave an inheritance to their grandchildren." Proverbs 13:22 Rosa, in the Courier Journal, May 1924 stated, “I will give the trophies to my grandchildren, for them to always keep.” While all four trophies were stolen from Rosa’s home in Tulsa, OK back in the 1930’s , the family continues to stay vigilant to help recover them so this wish of Rosa’s can finally become a reality.” In the word “GOLD” note the difference in the highlighting of the letters “GOD,” to acknowledge God’s blessings in providing the talents and gifts with which we have been blessed. A horizontal arrow pointing to the left stands for the energy to realize one’s wishes & ideas and can point toward a time of taking action. |
