St. Catherine’s High School in Richmond, VA has set up a fund in honor of Ishinomaki JET Taylor Anderson<\/strong><\/a> who attended St. Catherine’, according to an article in the The Richmond Times-Dispatch<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The below is from the fund website<\/a> (www.st.catherines.org\/tayloranderson<\/a>):<\/p>\n

“The St. Catherine\u2019s community is mourning the loss of Taylor Lane Anderson ’04. The Anderson family confirmed that their daughter\u2019s body was found on March 21 in Japan. Our School family is devastated by this discovery.<\/p>\n

Taylor was a four-year day student who quickly became involved in school activities after she arrived in the ninth grade. She was Co-Editor of the Atelier and a member of Model UN. Taylor touched many hearts while at St. Catherine\u2019s, taking her unique gifts and talents to the country of Japan. As part of the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program, Taylor spent the past two years teaching English to kindergarten, lower school and junior high school students in the coastal city of Ishinomaki. She was last seen after the March 11 earthquake, but before the tsunami devastated the coast of Japan.<\/p>\n

St. Catherine’s is so proud of Taylor for living the School’s motto, “What we keep we lose; only what we give remains our own.” She exemplified what it means to be a St. Catherine’s alumna and she will long live as a role model for our community. Taylor touched the hearts and lives of so many people at St. Catherine’s. Circumstances like these, while unimaginably sad, remind us of the value and the power of faith, family and friendship.<\/p>\n

The School has established the Taylor Anderson \u201904 Memorial Gift Fund<\/strong><\/a>. All money raised will be given in Taylor\u2019s memory to benefit the relief efforts in Japan, the country she loved so dearly. St. Catherine\u2019s will work with the Anderson family to direct the funds in the way that best honors Taylor\u2019s legacy. Our hope is to help with the rebuilding of the schools in the region where Taylor taught.<\/p>\n

Please leave your thoughts, memories and condolences below and they will be shared with the Anderson family.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
