from Adalyn Rose Foundation
Five-year-old Violet Chapin, the reigning Miss Pennsylvania Princess, is set to represent Reading, PA, at the prestigious National American Miss (NAM) Nationals in Orlando, Florida, this Thanksgiving season. This remarkable achievement not only showcases Violet’s dedication and talent but also serves as a heartfelt tribute to her brother, Oliver, who tragically passed away in 2021 at the age of almost five.
In honor of Oliver, Violet is collecting books and beads for the Adalyn Rose Foundation’s remembrance carts, which provide comfort to families facing similar tragedies. “This initiative means a lot to our family,” said Shirley Chapin, Violet’s mother. “It’s a way for Violet to keep Oliver’s spirit alive while also helping families like ours.”…
