💥 What I really need right now from YOU 💥
📸 Photos from Westwoods Academy (especially 1986 era if anyone has any)
🎥 15–30 sec videos from former students, parents, supporters:
Start with: “If it weren’t for Ed…”
Example:

“If it weren’t for Ed, I wouldn’t have graduated.”
“If it weren’t for Ed, I wouldn’t have believed in myself.”

💬 Written stories — Even if you’ve already shared one, please send it again just to be safe. I can’t see who shared it. I have a few saved, but I know there are probably a lot more I’m not seeing with the amount of shares the petition has gotten. So please any and everyone, even if you think I already have it send it over! 🙏

 
✉️ HOW TO SEND:
📩 Email: necimariemarketing@gmail.com
📝 Subject line: Your Name, Class You Graduated
💡 In the email: Include your story, photos, or anything you feel is helpful.

I'm organizing everything to present to the City of Bristol 📍 to show just how deep Ed’s impact runs and why he deserves a day in his honor, where his legacy can inspire generations of students and educators to come. 🎓✨

Let’s keep this momentum going. Every single share, video, memory, and story matters. Thank you for being part of something powerful. 💪

Let’s make history for Ed.
Warmly,
Neci 🌼
