With Theresa's birthday coming up, a few members on another forum have talked about a balloon release. This would be in honor of Theresa.
09-09-2007, it is being planned to release balloons. Preferably balloons that contain a message or flyer, but balloons nonetheless. The time for this to take place will be approximately 7 pm.
This would be a fantastic way to show that Theresa is still in our thoughts and minds. Also a way to lead others to continue thinking about her. There was mention to add a line such as this to the balloon:
Happy Birthday Theresa. Missing since March 21, 2007. If you have any information please contact ____________. (a number hasn't been mentioned on who to contact)
Any information, contact GBI Special Agent James Harris or GBI Agent David Gilleland Special Tip Line: 706-639-2255 (24 Hour)

I think this is a great idea and will definitely be participating. I hope a lot of people will. Also, here's a link that Dawgfan posted on the other blog that is a site where you can print out flyers/pictures of Theresa if you wanted to include a picture of Theresa on the info you put on the balloon. news.webshots.com/photo/2621851710101637750wFtelP

since purple is the color for DV, I think it would be appropriate to release purple balloons or even if you can find that place a purple ribbon - sliver or the lapel pin in the balloon or a string tied that is purple. Just a thought. With this in thought, please visit this link: www.nabas.co.uk/balloon.htmlIt talks about risk to sealife (or lack thereof) and many things to consider when conducting a balloon release

We (Lighting the Way Home) will participate in Peachtree City, GA on Theresa's Birthday. We will release 42 balloons for her with flyers attached (may put them inside too!). Also, I have linked you all at my GA forum (we are not discussion, just informational). I think you all have our old forum link, it crashed! So here is a link to new forum. ltwh.proboards55.com/index.cgiI have placed Theresa in our section called "In The Storm". Kindest regards to all! The work you all are doing is amazing!

Hello to all!!! Happy Birthday Theresa and Ga Gal!!! I didn't have time to post yesterday, but I gathered my children and grandchildren in the our field in Chickamauga, we made a circle and all 10 of us held hands , prayed for Theresa and family and then each one released 4 balloons each as we yelled happy birthday Theresa!!! It was a very special time. My grandson that is 6 , said "that is so sad, I would be crying every day if that was my family". Children are so precious, he then yelled to his balloons as they we getting out of sight, " please balloons, go find Theresa, bring her back to her family!! needless to say it was a tender moment. Everyone was busy with their balloons, we did not have anyone to video it. It would have been wonderful to share seeing a twelve , six and two year with their hands folded to Heaven asking God to find Theresa . Praying for all !!! Mia
