Liz Breon the Soul owner of Coast Jewelers. It wasn’t only a place of business, she helped the High School by supplying her time and materials so they could off er jewelry making classes. She did this because she loved young people. She was a sponsor of many events in our town, helping the homeless and unfortunate. She helped the Humane Society with the appraisal of their jewelry. Many people came by her store not to buy, but to ask questions and she would take the time from her work to help. Th is town will be feeling the loss of this wonderful person for a very long time. I do feel we will never have a Jewelry Store as great as her store was, and I will never have a friend as thoughtful, kind, helpful and supportive and I will always love and miss you, Liz Breon. Th ank you for letting my son’s and I be friends with you, “Dexter”, “Mosses” and your bird “Georgie”. Th ank you for everything! D.

In 2014, Zoey won her case, setting a precedent for other school boards to follow. Regarding the film, director Alencastre wrote “as a film- maker, I first perceive the importance of certain individu- als and their stories of courage and conviction and then begin to document them with a trust that the inherent importance to the community will allow them to come into being as films.
