We're now at 180 supporters — just 20 away from 200 — in a little over a week!! 🎉✨

Your shares, your stories, and your incredible support have helped bring this movement to life!!

Today, I’ve followed back up with:

🗞️ WFSB, NBC CT, News 8, Fox 61
📰 The Bristol Press, The Bristol Edition
📻 Hot 93.7’s DJ Buck, DJ Meechie, & Jenny Boom Boom
🏫 Bristol Boys & Girls Club & Bristol Youth Services

📅 I’ll be following up again on June 26th and will be reaching out to even more local publications, media outlets, and community leaders. We’re not slowing down.

🎥 I’ve also launched a video series:
“The Ones Who Sat Here: Westwoods Stories We've Been Holding In (1986–2015)”
This series highlights real student experiences the lives Ed helped shape and save.

📝 If you shared a story in your post when sharing the petition but not in the petition itself PLEASE email it to me at:
📬 necimariemarketing@gmail.com

The more stories and content we can gather, the stronger our push becomes to get Ed the recognition he has more than earned.

💥 Let’s get from 180 to 250 as quickly as we can.
While I'm strongly aiming for 500, getting to 250 is the next big goalpost, a number that could open even more doors to bring this campaign to life.

🔁 Please keep sharing the petition with family, friends, former classmates, teachers, and anyone whose life Ed may have touched.

I’m going to keep pushing this as hard as I can but I can’t do it without you. Let’s keep going. Let’s keep honoring Ed. Let’s make this happen. 🙌
