Sep 1, 2021 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Hospice has been a saving grace providing comfort for those in their final days and hours. Unfortunately, COVID has resulted in more than 56,000 deaths in Texas alone and an even greater need for hospice.

Jul 16, 2021 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Blonde Kim Hext’s track record for throwing a fundraising party is pretty impressive. There was the 2018 Zoo To Do that at the last minute had to fall back for Plan B when rain made the outdoor event a no-go. But when the Plan B hotel 'fessed that it wasn’t going to live up to its commitment, Kim pulled things together for a great old night at another venue with guests posing … [Read more...] about Sold-Out Alert!: Majestic Centennial Celebration Gala

May 13, 2021 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Noontime at Highland Park Village looked like a luxury car lot on a slow day. The vehicles were top-drawer, but they weren’t budging and finding a parking place was like searching for a contact lens in a shag rug. So the ladies of Crystal Charity Ball had two options in attending the new members get-together at Carolina Herrera — valet or take a workout on their stilettos after … [Read more...] about MySweetCharity Photo Gallery Alert!: 2020 And 2021 Crystal Charity Ball Newbies Reception

Have you heard of the Forefront Living Foundation? If you haven’t, not to worry. It was formerly known as Presbyterian Communities and Services. Evidently the name change took place in October 2019, but the announcement must have gotten lost between the October smack-you-down tornado and the 2020 takeover of the COVID-19. Regardless of the name change, the mission is … [Read more...] about JUST IN: 12th Annual Each Moment Matters Luncheon Leadership And Details Announced

It almost seemed surreal. On Tuesday, May 3, Lisa and Clay Cooley’s estate could have easily given Versailles or the Dallas Arboretum a run for glory. With fountains flowing on one side of the bridge and a tennis court on the other, pink, white and red flowers highlighted the Bluffview estate. Trams breezed the guests from the valet at the front gate to the Cooleys’ front door. … [Read more...] about 2016 Crystal Charity Ball Theme Revealed There Is A Season For Everything
