Carol Jane Cutler09/15/1950 ~ 06/22/2022

Alumni,

It is with a heavy heart that we have lost a true angel among us; Carol Cutler left this world way too soon. She will forever be remembered by her beautiful smile, her strength, and her loving heart. She had a warrior’s heart and brought so much light and love to those around her. She will be dearly missed; her memory will live on through those who were blessed to have crossed her path in life. God bless Carol and her precious family.

The HCCSAAA has made a donation in Carol’s name to the American Cancer Society. Just two weeks before she passed, Carol met with the Sunshine Kids when they were here for the Hill Country Adventure; through strength and determination, Carol spoke with the kids to give them encouragement to fight the good fight. She was an amazing inspiration and a beautiful soul. She will be dearly missed and will live on through those who were blessed to experience her light and love. Please keep the Cutler’s in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you,
Cathy Gieselman, President
HCCSA Alumni Association

President’s BlogGreetings Hello Alumni!
 
As Bruce explained at our March meeting, our guest speaker from Texas Parks & Wildlife originally scheduled for the meeting fell through; fortunately, Jeffrey Jordan graciously agreed to step in as our guest speaker at short notice which was great because the topic is something particularly important to our community, Hays County Crime Stoppers!
 
The meeting gave members the opportunity to hear from Jeffrey who is currently serving as the Executive Director of Hays County Crime Stoppers. Jeffrey not only shared the interesting history of Crime Stoppers but provided an informative overview of the ins and outs of the organization and all of the amazing work going on.
