My niece at nineteen, was far more powerful in life than I in my many years on this earth have ever been. To know her, the first thing one noticed was her tall willowy beauty. But then one would been taken by how unassuming and humble she was. She had a way of walking and looking at her toes in a very unsure manner which kind of served as a protective mechanism as if she expected not to be liked at first impression, it just endeared her more to you and made you want to protect her. For those who encountered her and did not get the chance to know her what a treat they missed. For those who did know her I'm sure they'll agree that we were among a blessed few.
She has been gone for ten months now but her mother (my hero) has selflessly chosen to share her daughter's light with the world. She has formed a foundation appropriately named Transforming America Through Interaction or TATI as my niece Tatiana was known - to mentor young people in at risk communities, a task that Tatiana herself was elbow deep in at the time of her passing. I am so proud.
