Beschreibung

This 'book of affirmations' was Charlotte Sproul's tether on this gift of life we've all been granted. These sayings and quotes fueled her optimism, hope, and strength to overcome every piece of bad news she received in her quest to regain her health and beat neuroendocrine cancer. All proceeds will be donated to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in support of its mission to eliminate cancer in Texas, the nation, and the world through outstanding programs that integrate patient care, research and prevention, and through education for undergraduate and graduate students, trainees, professionals, employees and the public. Funds will specifically be directed to MD Anderson's Neuroendocrine cancer research efforts.

Charlotte was born on October 10, 1949 in Florence, Alabama. She was an active member of the UC Berkeley campus community, having served as Program Manager for Cal Discoveries travel, the Cal Alumni Association travel program, for more than 10 years. She also served on the CAA Board of Directors for three years and as the Chairperson for UC Berkeley Charter Day for three years. She graduated from UC Berkeley in 1971 with a BA in Education and in 1975 with an MAT in French. Charlotte's enthusiasm for life, family, and travel was gigantic and infectious. All who encountered her were profoundly moved by her remarkable combination of grit and grace with which she faced the last couple of years. Charlotte was an avid traveler and a loyal Cal fan, and loved animals and the outdoors. She was particularly fond of South Africa, having always felt a deep connection to the country and its people since she first visited there in 2007. Former President of the Cal Alumni Association and family friend, Jefferson Coombs, had this to say about Charlotte: "Our shared passion for Cal, our love of building community, your strong leadership (founding the Lamorinda Cal Alumni Club) and most importantly your creative, welcoming, productive, innovative spirit were immediately characteristics I gravitated toward. I will always cherish our evenings in (your) backyard, dinners, great wine, conversations about travel, our university and culture in general. You will always be a special part of my life and our lives. Thank you for the lasting positive impression you made on this world." On June 21, Charlotte passed away at the age of 67 in the comfort of her Moraga home, surrounded by friends and family, after a long battle with neuroendocrine cancer.
