That is really awesome that Caheri has turned this into a really positive opportunity to educate and empower other youth to non-violence. Best wishes.

Caheri you are a beautiful person and are bringing the kind of love that our city needs. You make me proud to be an Oaklander along with you.
I find her to be more beautiful after this horrible incident than the pics of her before. I am another proud person of this remarkable young woman.
When you are graduating from community, won’t you want to look as never before? Well, I am sure all you ladies delight in to dress up and look your best at all seasons, but graduation has to be special. Standard such as hoary (most of the people), {hoary|pallid|wan|whitish|colorless|pale} yellow, light virid, azure, rose-color, peach, {hoary|black and hoary|ashen|ash-colored|grizzled|gray}, inky, of silver, lilac, etc., are some invisible world of the ancients you can pick|strike at out|single out|pitch upon|choose} for the graduation dresses for community. The color hoary or ivory is most widely used in graduation dresses for juniors, to maintain a certain sameness among the girls throughout the ceremony.
