The intriguing story of Doreen's "The Americana Stars Memorial" appeared in Stitcher's World July 2005 magazine. You may click the link below to read the article and view an image of her first memorial project called "An Americana Flag".

When the memorial piece is finished, it will serve as an honorable tribute to those who died in the attacks on New York, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania. All who look upon The Americana Stars Memorial will be reminded of their heroic legacy and of how America did not bow down to the cowardly murderers who despise freedom and our way of life.

A personal message from Doreen.

"I am very much in need of your help, as I have been supporting this project with my savings for the past 5-1/2 years. I have now reached the point where I must start a grass roots funding effort for donations in order to complete it in time for the 10th anniversary, September 11, 2011. No donation is too small and all will be greatly appreciated and acknowledged.
