President’s MESSAGE
Do More Than
Believe: Practice
Do more than belong: participate. Do more
than care: help. Do more than believe:
practice. Do more than be fair: be kind.
Do more than forgive: forget. Do more
than dream: work.

—William Arthur Ward
What powerful messages within this quote! The more
I read it, the more I realized it’s exemplary of P.E.O. in
many ways so I’d like to share my thoughts with you
about the first half of this quote.
Do more than belong: participate…We’re often
reminded that the more we participate and get engaged,
the more value we’ll get from our membership in P.E.O.
and the more we’ll want to be involved. P.E.O. is working
diligently to make it easier for our members to be engaged
by encouraging local chapters to have efficient meetings,
interesting and relevant programs and fun socials. We’re
also making it possible for our members to “connect” to
International Chapter through Facebook and Twitter. If you
know a member who hasn’t participated in chapter
activities lately, please reach out to her so she knows we
care and can help her get reconnected.
Do more than care: help…This is one of the strongest
distinguishing factors about P.E.O. Many organizations
provide environments that enable friendships to form.
In P.E.O. we take friendship to the next level by adding
heartfelt, caring concern that develops tighter bonds of
fellowship among our members. We enable women of
all walks of life to achieve their educational dreams by
offering our financial assistance and emotional support.
We “help” our members and we “help” women we
hardly know as we learn of their educational pursuits.
Do more than believe: practice…The passion and
enthusiasm I observe from members at our events show
that we all believe in the spirit of P.E.O. and in “helping
women reach for the stars.” I’m inspired and thankful
every time I see your dedication first hand during my
visits. Since the beginning of this biennium, I’ve asked
each of you to accept the challenge of the “Power of
1” to strengthen our membership and our philanthropic
support. I’ve offered some ideas about what you
might choose for your individual, and your chapter’s,
“Power of 1”. Hopefully, you’ve determined the “1”
additional contribution you’re going to make to P.E.O.
this biennium.
I’m a firm believer in the old adage “Don’t ask of
others things you wouldn’t do yourself” so I want to share
my personal
“1”s with you.
At the
beginning of
this biennium, I
decided one of
my individual
“Powers of 1”
would be to
introduce my
sister to
chapters in
Indianapolis
with the hope
she would
become my
P.E.O. sister.
I’m happy to
say my “1”
became reality
this May and
we’re often talking about P.E.O. now! Another “1” was to
introduce a former colleague to chapters in Boston—
she has also been given the gift of P.E.O.! I used the
“Introduction of a Woman Not a P.E.O.” form for both of
these introductions. To support our philanthropic projects,
my “1” is to be more diligent, along with my chapter
members, about seeking potential candidates for our
assistance. So far, my chapter has nominated a STAR
candidate, successfully sponsored a Scholar Award recipient,
and we’re currently interviewing a candidate for both an
ELF loan and a PCE grant. Now we need to identify our “1”
for Cottey and IPS.
As we all “do more than
believe: (we) practice”,
I ask you. . . Do you know
what your “1” is?
With sisterly love,
Maria T. Baseggio,
President, International Chapter
Special gratitude is extended to Cathy Allen, past
president Arkansas State Chapter, for her dedication
as she completes her service on the Educational Loan
Fund Board of Trustees. We are pleased to welcome
Cathy Manhart, past president Montana State Chapter,
as she begins her five-year appointment to the
Educational Loan Fund Board of Trustees on October 1.

About P.E.O.
P.E.O. (Philanthropic Educational Organization)
is passionate about its mission:
promoting educational opportunities for women. Our sisterhood proudly makes a difference in women’s
lives with six philanthropies that include Cottey College, a women’s college with two- and selected
four-year programs, and five programs that provide higher educational assistance: P.E.O. Educational
Loan Fund, P.E.O. International Peace Scholarship Fund, P.E.O. Program for Continuing Education,
P.E.O. Scholar Awards and P.E.O. STAR Scholarship. P.E.O. is headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa.
P.E.O. Educational

P.E.O. International Peace
Scholarship
P.E.O. Program for
Continuing Education
Educational Loan Fund (ELF) is a
revolving loan fund established in
1907 to lend money to qualified
women students to assist them in
securing a higher education.
P.E.O. International Peace
Scholarship (IPS) Fund was
established in 1949 to provide
scholarships for international women
students to pursue
graduate study in the
United States and Canada.
P.E.O. Program for Continuing
Education (PCE) was established in
1973 to provide need-based grants
to women in the United States and
Canada whose education has been
interrupted and who find it necessary
to return to school to support
themselves and/or their families.
P.E.O. STAR Scholarship
Cottey College
P.E.O. Scholar Awards (PSA)
was established in 1991 to provide
substantial merit-based awards
for women of the United States
and Canada who are pursuing
a doctoral level degree at an
accredited college or university.
The P.E.O. STAR Scholarship was
established in 2009 to provide
scholarships for exceptional high
school senior women to attend
an accredited postsecondary

Gratitude from a STAR Recipient
P.E.O. Helped My Son!
My name is Yadira Castaneda and I
am not a member of P.E.O. However,
I received a P.E.O. STAR scholarship
four years ago and have been
supported by P.E.O. Chapter DZ,
Wenatchee, Washington. The women
in this chapter have supported me
since I started my studies at Stanford
University. They have encouraged
me to follow my dreams, not give up
and enjoy my time at Stanford. They
were there for me through my ups
and downs cheering me on. Up to
this day, they continue to be one of
the few who have always believed in
my ability to succeed. Receiving their
quarterly cards full of great wishes
and support motivated me to keep
going. They always knew what to say.
This P.E.O. chapter has a very
special place in my heart, especially
Jan Petrie. These women never treated
me different based on my background
or skin color. On the contrary, they
truly helped me reach the stars. When
I came home after my first quarter
at Stanford, I was ready to give up
pre-med. However, they encouraged
me to keep going. I am so glad they
stopped me from giving up on a
dream that I continue to pursue.
Yadira Castaneda, 2010 STAR
Scholarship recipient
As the mother of three sons and no
daughters I have sometimes felt a
little sad that none of my children
would ever reap the benefits of our
wonderful sisterhood. However, I can
now brag that is no longer the case.
My son is a student at the University
of North Dakota, Grand Forks, working
toward a doctorate degree in physical
therapy. One of the graduation
requirements is to go out into the world
and do four nine-week clerkships. The
students are responsible for finding
their own housing during these
clerkships, which can be a challenge
since apartment rentals require leases
of at least six months and many
students can’t afford long-term
motel stays.
I took advantage of the local
presidents list on the P.E.O website
and looked for zip codes that were
the same as the clinic where my
son would be working in Oregon.
Several P.E.O.s were willing to let
my son “camp” in their home for
his short stay. Sight unseen, they
trusted me and acted upon my plea
for help. What a wonderful feeling
I have towards P.E.O.s. Total strangers
came to our rescue to help a young
man whom they had never met and
allowed him into their home—that
takes a lot of courage. I also had the
trust and confidence to know my son
would be safe. Where else but with
a sister? A huge “thank you” to Ellen
Houx, Chapter AN, Portland, Oregon,
for her gracious hospitality for allowing
my son to stay in her home.
P.E.O.s across the nation help
each other because we are sisters.
We reach out with a determination
to do all we can at all time and
under all circumstances to express
a loving concern for each sister.

The Importance of Wearing Your
Pin…For Other Reasons
On the day of my first meeting as a
new officer in my chapter, I was
running late. Feeling confident I would
still make the meeting on time (as it
was still 45 minutes away), I paid no
mind to the car ahead of me—it was
a police car and I was speeding.
I was pulled over and while
speaking with the officer he noticed
the pin on my lapel. He asked,
“Are you a P.E.O.?”
"Why, yes I am," I boasted
with pride.
Turns out, this officer comes
from a long line of P.E.O. women
from Indiana. He spoke of the good
memories he had as a young boy of
the women who treated he and his
family so well. He went on to explain
that his grandmother and mother
were P.E.O.s and had nothing but
fond memories of their gatherings. He
did not give me a ticket that day, but
instead shared heartfelt memories of
the impact that P.E.O. had in his life.
I learned two lessons that day—you
never know where or when P.E.O.
will impact you and your life or
those around you and always wear
your pin to a meeting!

Reinstated Sisters Find
There’s No Place Like P.E.O.
by Debbie Clason, Coordinator, Membership Development
Ann Noble was a Cream of
Wheat eater when she was a
little girl, but that didn’t stop
her from thinking oatmeal might
have something to do with the
meaning of the P.E.O. letters.
“My mom wouldn’t tell me what
the letters stood for,” the Chapter
IY, Frisco, Texas member said,
“so I figured it out all by myself.
People Eat Oatmeal.”
Ann was initiated into her mother’s
Oklahoma chapter while her husband
was stationed in Thailand during
the Vietnam
War. When he
returned and
they moved to
California, she
chose inactive
status and
focused on raising
her children.
Through the
Ann Noble
years, the sisters in her mother’s
chapter stayed in touch, comforting
Ann when her brother was killed
and again when her mother passed
away. When two of those sisters
sent Ann a text on the same day—
one from Oklahoma and one from
Arkansas—both talking about the
P.E.O. meeting they were getting
ready to host, the memories came
flooding back.
“Mother had that gift of hospitality
and she loved it when it was her turn
to hostess. Suddenly I wanted that
again—a group of ladies who loved
each other and were a joy to be
around,” Ann said.
Ann is not alone. Each year since
2006, more than 1,000 inactive
sisters chose to reinstate their P.E.O.
memberships. Some of them, like
Kathy Schmidt, go on to serve P.E.O.
as president of their state chapter.
Kathy, past president of Georgia
State Chapter, chose inactive status
when her son
was young and
she couldn’t
participate fully in
chapter activities.
“I was truly
embarrassed that
I couldn’t pull
my weight. That’s
just not the way
Kathy Schmidt
I work,” she said.
“My chapter sisters were always
glad to see me. It was simply that I
couldn’t participate.”
When she learned her family was
relocating three years later, she
requested reinstatement, knowing
P.E.O. membership would help her
meet women in her new community.
“It never ceases to amaze me the
fun that we have being together and
how the nickels and dimes we put
together accomplish so much globally,”
Kathy said. “We have fun doing our
projects, whether it’s weighing our
purses or selling pecans. It all comes
together for such a huge affect.”
What do both women advise
inactive sisters who are considering
reinstatement? “Just do it,” Kathy
said. “You won’t be disappointed.
You’re always a P.E.O.”
“It’s easier than you would think,”
Ann said. “You will be surprised
at the welcome you get and the
joy you immediately receive—like
you’ve known them all your life. I’m
still learning names, but I feel like I
belong. That’s the way P.E.O. sisters
are. Now that I’ve reinstated and
am looking back, I bet I missed a
lot of blessings by not transferring
when I moved to California.”
The P.E.O. Record
Easy Steps to
Reinstatement
It’s easy to reinstate your
P.E.O. membership. Just
follow these steps:
If you’d like to return to
the chapter from which you
became inactive:
• Send a letter to your chapter
notifying them of your
reinstatement
• Enclose the reinstatement
fee of $35 with your letter
If you’ve been invited to
transfer to another chapter:
• Send a letter to the chapter
who extended the invitation
to transfer notifying them
that you are reinstating and
accepting their invitation.
• Enclose the reinstatement
fee of $35 with your letter
In both situations, your
membership is effective when
your letter is read at a business
meeting or special meeting
and the reinstatement fee is
received. If you no longer live
near the chapter from which
you became inactive, complete
the online form available at
www.NoPlaceLikePEO.com
and your information will be
sent to local chapters in
your area.

In January 2014, Forbes magazine
presented their annual list of
“30 Under 30 Who Are Changing
the World.” This is a tally of the
brightest stars in 15 different
fields under the age of 30. One
of our own P.E.O.s, Cigall Kadoch,
from Chapter LL in Redwood City,
California, has been honored to be
included in this prestigious group.
Not only is Cigall a P.E.O. sister,
she was also the recipient of a
P.E.O. Scholar Award in 2011.
Forbes recognized Cigall on their
“30 Under 30” list for her work in
the field of Science and Healthcare—
specifically for her amazing cancer
biology work in the lab. According
to her profile in Forbes, Cigall “has
been studying a rare cancer—synovial
sarcoma—to yield insights that could
help understand other types of cancer.
How genes are read by the cells in
8
our bodies depends in part on their
physical structure, and Kadoch’s work
has explained how changes in that
physical structure, caused by mutations
in yet other genes, can help cause
the disease.”
Synovial sarcoma is a rare softtissue malignancy. Cigall’s work has
implications for many cancer types
and could eventually lead to new
cancer treatments.
Background
Born and raised in the San Francisco
Bay area, Cigall is the older of two
children. Her sister Orli just graduated
from the University of California, Davis,
with a degree in neuroscience and
psychology and is also pursuing a
career in science. Cigall’s mother,
Kathleen, is originally from Michigan;
her father, Robert, grew up in Morocco
and Israel and was the first of his family
The P.E.O. Record
to come to the United States. Cigall
is the first person in her father’s family
to graduate from college, not to mention
earn a doctoral degree, a real point of
pride for him. Robert and Kathleen live
in Tiburon, California, and are owners of
Tiburon Belvedere Interiors, an interior
decorating and furniture design
business they started together and
have run for more than 30 years.
Cigall attended public high school
(Redwood High School) in Marin
County and went on to graduate
from the University of California,
Berkeley with a B.A. in molecular
and cell biology in 2007. Cigall said
she’s always had an interest in science
and intended to become a medical
doctor but eventually realized her
true passion lies in solving puzzles
in medicine and discovering knowledge
which goes beyond our current
understanding of disease, which led
to her decision to stay with the field
of biomedical research.
She continued her education at the
University of California, San Francisco
(USCF), where she was involved with
hematology and oncology research
at the medical center. In 2011, Cigall
received the Women in Cancer
Research Award from the American
Association for Cancer Research
(AACR). She was one of ten recipients
internationally and the youngest; her
Women in Cancer Research Award
was given in recognition of the brain
tumor research she did at UCSF.
After her work at USCF, Cigall went
on to pursue a doctorate at the Stanford
University School of Medicine. She
graduated from Stanford in 2012 and
was quickly recruited for faculty
positions nationwide. She stayed on
as a postdoctoral research fellow until
January of this year (2014), when
she began a position at Dana-Farber/
Boston Children’s Cancer and Blood
Disorders Center and Harvard
Medical School.
Since January, Cigall has been
running her new lab at Harvard, which
continues to grow and now has a staff
of ten. She says she has really enjoyed
the experience of building a talented
group of researchers of all levels of
their career, from undergraduate
students to postdoctoral fellows.
Cigall explained, “We are trying to
understand a mechanism known
as chromatin regulation given that
over 20 percent of human cancers
have compromise to this process.
Our studies aim to uncover the
biochemical and structural basis of
changes to genetic architecture and
to identify how these changes lead
to malignancy, which could serve
as a strong foundation for the
development of novel therapeutic
approaches to cancer.”
P.E.O.
Cigall was selected for a P.E.O. Scholar
Award in 2011 and received a $15,000
award to help complete her Ph.D. at
Stanford. Her aunt, Barbara Lee
Mathews, is a member of Chapter GF,
Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Another
aunt, Susan Cannon, is in Chapter
AH, Saginaw, Michigan. While Chapter
GF in Cape Girardeau officially
sponsored Cigall for the Scholar
Award, she is grateful for having
been “tri-sponsored”—supported by
members of Chapter GF, Missouri; AH,
Michigan and the chapter near her at
Stanford, LL, Redwood City, California.
Even before receiving a P.E.O.
Scholar Award, Cigall knew about
the Sisterhood. She’d heard great things
about it from her aunts. As an
undergrad, she visited her aunt Barbara,
who then lived in Boston and hosted
P.E.O. meetings and was a P.E.O. B&B
hostess. Cigall got to meet many P.E.O.s
who stayed with her aunt and learned
about P.E.O.’s mission and purpose.
Shortly after receiving her Scholar
Award, Cigall was invited to join
Chapter LL, Redwood City, California.
She was initiated in June 2011. She said,
“I thought it was an incredibly diverse
and wonderful group of women who
defense, and also presented a program
to her chapter in California, in which
she spoke about the importance and
impact of her discoveries in the lab.
Cigall’s sisters in Chapter LL are
impressed by her enthusiasm for
teaching and her commitment to give
back to those who have supported her.
She gives two lectures per year to an
advanced biomedical science class at
her high school in the Bay Area,
and now, even after moving to
Boston, still returns to teach this
lecture every year.
In her free time Cigall enjoys the
outdoors, exercise, music and reading
for pleasure. She is close with her family
and friends and loves traveling to see
family in distant parts of the world.
While Cigall lived her whole life
in the San Francisco Bay area until
six months ago and says her heart
will always be in California, she’s
very excited about being at Harvard.
She said, “The experience here is
unparalleled. It’s really the Mecca of
scientific discovery and the perfect
place for me to start my career.”
P.E.O.s should be proud to call Cigall “sister” and of
the role we played in her pursuit of higher education.
Already a stand-out star in her field, as Cigall
continues to learn and make discoveries
in her research, we will be watching
with great interest as she makes an impact
in the scientific and medical communities.
were excited about my career goals.
One of the most valuable things I got
out of the experience—besides the
Scholar Award—was getting to meet
wonderful women who will support
my career throughout. I am impressed
by their dedication to the cause of P.E.O.
and the cohesiveness of the group.”
Many of the women from Cigall’s
P.E.O. chapter attended her graduation
from Stanford; some even attended
her dissertation defense. Cigall spoke
at the Missouri State P.E.O. Convention
in 2012, just a week before her thesis
P.E.O.s should be proud to call Cigall
“sister” and of the role we played in
her pursuit of higher education.
Already a stand-out star in her field,
as Cigall continues to learn and make
discoveries in her research, we will
be watching with great interest as
she makes an impact in the scientific
and medical communities. And as
a P.E.O. herself, Cigall will certainly
make a difference in the lives of other
women in the years to come.

Since my early youth, I have been
independent. I would seek challenges
and was always daring. Starting my
nursing career as an Army nurse,
I enjoyed the leadership opportunities
and physical and mental stamina
required by the military. After
becoming a civilian, I was attracted
to the fast-paced excitement of trauma
and intensive care nursing. I developed
not only knowledge and skill, but also
an intuitive compassion. Through the
inevitable fire of my chosen nursing
surroundings I was being refined—
not into a different person, but a
better person, bringing out from
within the depths of my being
empathy for my patients.
Now, 18 years into my nursing
career, I appreciate balance. I strive
for excellence in nursing—focusing
upon being a patient advocate and
is strengthened when I move outside
the boundaries of myself and seek
to discern and attend to the diverse
needs of the community, indeed the
world, around me.
With any endeavor comes a need
for resources to make that goal a

promoting individual health and
holistic well-being. I constantly
pursue a greater good, always
seeking to step into more of the fullness
of my character. I long to enrich the
lives of those entrusted to my care
with a deeper level of influence and
responsibility. I aspire to become a
Family Nurse Practitioner. I desire
to impact not only my immediate
community, but also abroad in
volunteer trips to help those whose
lives have been devastated by war,
disease, famine or other natural
calamity. My heart aches when I
see others made destitute by
circumstances outside of their control.
I believe in recycling blessings.
I have been blessed with so very
much…I have a mother who has
survived stage IV cancer, a husband
who survived a life-threatening
injury and two children who survived
difficult pregnancies. I believe that
now I have a responsibility, indeed
a moral obligation, to bless others.
This commitment to service, however,
does not make me weary; there is
always a reciprocal enrichment that
takes place. My identity, my resolve
reality. It has never been an option to
sacrifice taking care of my two young
children for the sake of my career
aspirations. I am in graduate school
but also a full-time mom. My husband
works hard to provide for our financial
obligations but his income does not
cover the expenses of a family of
four and the costs of my education.
Thankfully, I learned about P.E.O.
from my aunt and mother-in-law,
both long-time members of the
organization. They encouraged
me to apply for financial assistance
from this sisterhood, which supports
women as they pursue an education
to not only work toward the betterment
of society, but also to provide a
lasting legacy for their families.

Cottey College
A Message from the Cottey President
by Judy Rogers, Ph.D., President, Cottey College
At the
successful
conclusion
of A Defining
Moment: The
Campaign
for Cottey
College,
we heard
from our
Campaign
Cabinet and volunteers that
Cottey must continue the
outreach begun during the
Campaign—to continue raising
the visibility of the College among
P.E.O.s, BILs, alumnae, friends of the
College and friends we have yet to
meet. In response, Cottey launched
an integrated marketing plan, building
on the best practices learned from
the Defining Moment. Carla Bryant
Farmer, former campaign manager,
is leading this initiative.
At the all-campus meeting in May,
I announced that I had two priorities
before retiring from the presidency
of Cottey College. They go handin-hand—to support marketing efforts
and thereby increase enrollment.
A pilot marketing program was
launched in Kansas City a year ago
based on recommendations of a
2012 study by George Dehne and
Associates (GDA). In the report, Jane
Seaberg Daly, GDA representative,
stated, “…an institution needs to
have been seen or heard on several
fronts in a concentrated time-frame
in order to be recognized and
remembered. It’s a noisy market
out there, so a ‘one and done’
attempt will be ineffective.”
The logical next step is to take
12
the Kansas City pilot to the next
level. The framework for the
marketing plan is now in place
with the initial rollout in Denver in
September followed by more work
in Kansas City in October. Other
cities will follow. There will be a
burst of activity and events, layered
in a two- to four-day time period,
preceded by advance public
relations and advertising.
showcase Cottey to young women
we might never have met or hosted
on campus.
We will also seek regional and
national media opportunities. In
August, Cottey was featured in a
two-page article in U.S. Airways
magazine along with other women’s
colleges, which reached a monthly
readership of more than three
million. The message was that
“…an institution needs to have been
seen or heard on several fronts in a
concentrated time-frame in order
to be recognized and remembered.
It’s a noisy market out there,
so a ‘one and done’ attempt
will be ineffective.”
—Jane Seaberg Daly, George Dehne and Associates
We will also seek opportunities
to introduce Cottey to other
women’s organizations. As part
of the marketing initiative in Kansas
City, a partnership was formed with
the Women’s Foundation of Greater
Kansas City. The Foundation and
Cottey share a similar mission to
help women succeed. Conversations
led to the opportunity to help the
Foundation expand its high school
program for selected young women
to include a leadership focus. Cottey
will host a leadership retreat for the
Foundation that will include two
students from each high school,
private and public, in Kansas City.
What a wonderful opportunity to

Now is the time for Cottey to
embrace a strategic marketing
campaign, bringing together our
internal and external resources
to capture the attention of

IPS Partners in Peace—
A World of Opportunity!
by Linda Spence, Chairman, International Peace Scholarship Board of Trustees
As Chapter B in Concord, New
Hampshire, now knows, we
have much to learn from our IPS
recipients! Chapter B IPS cochairman Barbara Ashworth wrote,
“Recently we had the opportunity to
meet our Partner in Peace, Leonora
Gashi, a delightful young woman
from the small country of Kosovo.
Through articles on the internet
and a map provided by Leonora,
our sisters learned that Kosovo
was one of several provinces that
made up former Yugoslavia; it is
bordered by Serbia, Montenegro,
Macedonia and Albania. While
most countries in southeastern
Europe have a Slavic heritage, the
culture and language of Kosovo are
shared with Albania.”
Traveling 70 miles to the Graduate
School for International Training (SIT)
in Brattleboro, Vermont, members
of Chapter B met Leonora, who is
completing her master’s in teaching
English to speakers of other
languages. With nearly 40 percent
unemployment in Kosovo, Leonora
hopes to improve the education
system in her country and especially
to empower girls to grow personally
and professionally by understanding
the importance of education and
staying in school beyond the

Melissa Blanchard or becoming a
member of
Chapter H,
Keene, New Hampshire. My
longtime family friend, neighbor
and now P.E.O. sister, Carol Austin,
often spoke about a special group
of women she was a part of. She
talked about their kinship, common
values and philanthropic projects
and mentioned if I ever needed to
return to school, PCE might be an
option for me. After my initiation in
2008, I got to know my sisters and
found myself impressed with how
each found their own way to share
their individual gifts with others
through their careers and volunteer
passions, but also in the many ways
they chose to “pay it forward.”
I’ve been fortunate in my own life
to be surrounded by people for
whom generosity and giving back
are second nature. My husband,
parents, sisters, grandparents and
now my P.E.O. sisters all are living
examples of what it means to lend
a helping hand.
In 2010, I decided to return
to school to earn a certification

the grant to help cover the
cost of a massage table,

before beginning my
program. It is the same
massage table I use today

Her parents’ divorce at the age of eight and the move from Texas to her grandmother’s Arkansas home
allowed Madelynn to find solace and escape through film and television. The lives portrayed on the screen were

Dodge, Iowa, and
lived throughout
her childhood on
the banks of Twin

followed family
tradition by attending the University
22
of Iowa, where she majored in natural
science and psychology. Jacqueline
worked for many years as a territory
director in the optical and retail fields,
relocating the family to Scottsdale,
Seattle, San Jose, Chicago and finally
Los Angeles. Jacqueline then decided
to stay at home with her two daughters

parent organizations. Upon relocation
back to Scottsdale and as the girls
began to leave the nest, Jacqueline
rejoined the workforce, as executive
director of a non-profit organization and then as vice president of an
event production company.

and who prefers
field hockey to ice
hockey! She has
lived in various
The P.E.O. Record
communities throughout British
Columbia and was fortunate to spend
nearly five years in Northumberland,
England. She credits that experience
with her interest in history, theater,
music and her strong scholastic habits.
After returning to Canada Susan
obtained a bachelor’s degree in
geography from the University of
British Columbia (UBC) and later a
Bachelor of Science (with distinction)
in microbiology and a Ph.D. in
biochemistry from the University of
Victoria. In 2001 she was initiated
into Chapter AR, Victoria, the chapter
that sponsored her for a P.E.O. Scholar
Award. Susan was delighted to be the
first recipient of the Juanita M. Davis BC
Endowed P.E.O. Scholar Award.
Susan transferred into Chapter BI,
Richmond in 2003 when she began
her career in cancer research at the
Vancouver Prostate Centre, a National
Centre of Excellence. She is also a
UBC adjunct faculty and teaches in
the department of medicine.
Susan loves her family deeply, is
devoted to P.E.O., adores dogs
(particularly dachshunds), enjoys
needlework and likes fundraising
for various cancer organizations.
A lifelong learner, she is committed

whatever she undertakes.
Kathy Devadas
District of Columbia
How Lucky We Are!
Sharing our Star
Kathy Devadas first
learned of P.E.O.
as a teenager
when visiting
relatives in Alaska.
It wasn’t until years
later when several
friends from church
invited Kathy to
attend a P.E.O. tea
that she realized
this was a very special organization
that extends far and wide.
Kathy was initiated into Chapter M,
District of Columbia in 2002. Having
served in most offices at the chapter
level, as well as the state finance
committee, Kathy very much enjoys
being of service to the Sisterhood
and meeting new P.E.O.s.
Kathy grew up in Bethesda,
Maryland, graduated from Montgomery
College, Rockville, Maryland, and
has lived in the greater Washington,
D.C. area most of her life. She is an
accounting manager for an environmental engineering firm located only
two blocks from the White House
which makes for a very unique stroll
during her lunch hour.
In addition to P.E.O., Kathy is active
in the Daughters of the American
Revolution, United Methodist Women
and is a longtime member of North
Bethesda United Methodist Church.
Her interests include genealogy and
“ancestor hunting” excursions throughout New England and trips abroad and
all across the USA. In addition, Kathy
loves cooking, trying new cuisines,
entertaining and event planning.
She is the proud mother of one son,
Matthew, who lives in Los Angeles.
Her extended family includes many
P.E.O.s across the country, including
beloved cousins in Alaska.
Marta Arthurs
Idaho
Celebrating 100 Years of
P.E.O. in Idaho
Marta Arthurs was
born in Wallace,
Idaho, the eighth
of nine children.
Marta and her
BIL Jeff met while
attending Idaho
State University
in Pocatello, Idaho.
After Jeff graduated
pharmacy school, they were married
and moved to Tucson, Arizona,
where they spent 10 years raising
their two children.
Marta and Jeff have been married
33 years proving that a sense of humor
helps one persevere in the face of
just about anything. In 1991 Marta
and Jeff returned to the Wallace area.
In 1997 Marta was initiated into her
current Chapter X, Wallace, Idaho,
where her mother, Freda Jones, served
as treasurer. Marta has served as
local chapter treasurer, vice president
and president and on the state
committee as a Cottey Representative.
Currently residing in Chicago and
pursuing a doctorate degree, their son
Joe married Emily Davis, X, Wallace,
Idaho; they are expecting a baby in
August. Daughter Emily Matthews is
married to Chris and is the mother
of Olivia and expecting as well.
Daughter Emily’s family lives close
by and Marta says it has been a joy
to be Olivia’s grandparents and the
new babies arriving will be a respite
amidst the busyness of serving as
state president.
Marta has volunteered for all
manner of things over the years and
enjoys the true relaxation she gets
from needlework as well as knitting.
Marta is already planning on expanded
ventures into quilting. A novel is
never far from her grasp, escapism
at its best. The library board and
various duties at church have all been
minimized during the service on
the board and Marta looks forward
to giving more of her time to these
endeavors in 2016.
She first worked for Midwest Research
Institute in Kansas City, but since 1990
has worked for Hallmark Cards,
where she currently serves as an
engineer, developing seasonal and
innovative gift products.
Carolee’s Hallmark and P.E.O.
life go hand-in-hand because it was
also in 1990 when Carolee decided
to actively participate in P.E.O. and
transferred to Chapter IT, Shawnee
Mission, Kansas. Prior to her election
to the state board, Carolee was a
delegate to International Convention
and served on the state leadership
team and local reciprocity board.
Scott, Carolee’s husband of 20 years,
is a mechanical engineer for Honeywell.
Together they designed an energy
efficient home on 12 acres. While
doing most of the building themselves,
Carolee became an expert tile layer.
Carolee and Scott’s newest hobby is
making artisan chocolates.
Carolee is a 16-year cancer survivor.
She currently teaches Sunday school
and has helped start two churches in
the Kansas City area.
Almost every day you’ll find Carolee
taking a walk at lunch and reading
in bed at night. Carolee enjoys snow
skiing and travel, and she rejuvenates
by hand quilting and gardening.

of homes in Rutland. She served on
the board of directors for 11 years
during which time 45 homes received

Priscilla Koelling
Virginia
Imagine the Possibilities
P.E.O. started for
Priscilla Koelling
in 1990 when her
sister-in-law sent an
FR form to chapters
in Blacksburg,
which led to her
being initiated
into Chapter AH,
Blacksburg. In
2000, Priscilla
couldn’t stay out of the excitement of
forming a new chapter in Blacksburg and
she has remained an active member
of that baby chapter, Chapter BP.
Priscilla married her high school
sweetheart Pat and it has been a
blessing for 39 years! Priscilla attended
Stephens College and graduated from
Oklahoma State University. Pat teaches
in the industrial engineering department
at Virginia Tech. She and Pat have
three wonderful grown children,
Christy, Adam and Ashley, one
terrific son-in-law, Dustin (married
to Christy) and one amazing and
adorable granddaughter, Ella (Christy
and Dustin’s). Priscilla has found the
job she loves—being Grandma!
A stay-at-home mom was the best
fit for Priscilla because serving others
is her passion. Schools never lack for
opportunities to volunteer so Priscilla
took advantage of it and served in
a variety of capacities. She found
volunteering in the schools helped
her stay in touch with the environment
her children were in every day.
Priscilla also volunteered in various
areas in her church and was blessed
to start a prayer shawl ministry that
has touched many people, in addition
to the knitters. While leading this
ministry, the tragic shootings at
Virginia Tech occurred and Priscilla
received more than 300 prayer
blankets, from various churches across
the U.S., to give each family of the
victims, the injured and to the
students who were affected and
needed extra comfort.
The P.E.O. Record
25
Priscilla and Pat felt God’s call to
move to a new church plant of the
Anglican church after having been
active members of the Methodist
church for more than 20 years. As
active members of this Anglican
church they are excited to see
where God is leading them.
Embarking on her final year on the
Virginia State Board, she is excited to
see Virginia grow in membership and
dedication to our sisterhood and its
philanthropies. Priscilla is excited to
see how she can be a part of keeping
God an integral part of this wonderful
organization and to bring all the glory
to Him. She feels it is important to
embrace the improvements necessary
while holding onto the traditions
that made the sisterhood survive
145 years!

Chapter G, Sapulpa, Oklahoma, held
a putting tournament fundraiser. The
chapter’s third annual tournament was
held at the local municipal golf course.
With the $20 registration fee, each
participant received five golf balls. In
order to advance successfully to the
next round, the participant needed
to sink the designated putt. For
those who did not succeed and who
desired to continue in the competition,
extra golf balls were available for
purchase. After four rounds, the final
four winners were determined and
prizes were awarded. Various
community businesses and individuals
contributed donations of door prizes
and silent auction items. For three
years, this two-hour event has netted
a profit of over $2,000 to $2,800 yearly
for P.E.O. projects.
Refresh Your Walls Fundraiser
Chapter C, Ely, Nevada, recently held its
third annual “Refresh Your Walls” art
auction at the Bristlecone Convention
Center in Ely. The theme for the spring
fundraiser centered around changing
the décor on your walls for a refreshing
new look for spring. Art for the event
was donated by local artists, members
of the community and Chapter C
members. Members provided sweet
and savory hors d’oeuvres and decorated the tables with a fresh spring
theme. The event raised more than
$6,000 to support P.E.O. projects.
Friends Meet for Tea
Since 2007, Chapter GE, Brookings,
Oregon, has held an invitational tea
to get the community involved in
their fundraising. The tea is called
“Friends Meet for Tea by the Sea.”
Sisters canvass merchants for
silent auction
items, bearing
information
sheets about P.E.O.
and our projects.
Many talented
sisters donate
generously of their
crafts. Local ladies
look forward to
wearing hats in
the elegant setting,
eating a delicious
buffet, collecting
party favors and
viewing more than
200 jewelry, fabric
art, gift baskets

Founders’ Day Fun
Guests admire P.E.O. Maria Fossum’s teapot
purse at Chapter GE’s tea fundraiser
and other items on auction. Project
recipients speak about how we’ve
helped them. Follow-up includes
publicity photos and a story in
the newspaper.
Income from the fundraiser has
varied from $4,000 to $10,000 annually.
“Buy it Now” tables with homemade
gourmet treats sell out. Sisters in
Chapter GE say each year is a bit
different, but the delight in helping
women remains constant.
When Chapter BR, Lewiston, Idaho,
was asked to provide entertainment
for their area’s Founders’ Day
celebration several years ago, they
created (with the help of BIL Larry
Butts) life-sized plywood dolls
to represent the seven founders.
Members “clothed” the cutouts
with wrapping paper and wall
paper and embellished them with
lace and buttons. After they were
unveiled at the first event, P.E.O.s
lined up to have pictures taken
in them. The cutouts have been
Frivolities Show
Chapter R, Waynoka, Oklahoma, hosts
an annual fundraiser called “Frivolities
Show.” The entire community is invited
to attend the event. Attendees donate
money to P.E.O. to attend the event,
which features desserts and coffee,
door prizes and live entertainment. All
the money earned is used for P.E.O.
Chapter BR’s life-sized plywood cutouts of
our seven Founders are a fun addition to
chapter programs and celebrations
a huge hit with many chapters—
they have travelled from Spokane,
Washington, to Boise, Idaho.
Four different
Founders’ Day
programs have
been written
to showcase
the cutouts.
Chapter BR has
received several
contributions for
use of the dolls
and this money
has been used for
donations to the
P.E.O. projects.

fundraising luncheon
Would Emily Post be Shocked?
Chapter IH, Bonita Springs, Florida,
hosted a fundraising luncheon at
Vasari Country Club in Bonita
Springs. The invited speaker was
Peggy Post—she is the greatgranddaughter in-law of the first
lady of etiquette, Emily Post. Since
Emily’s death in 1960, the Post
family has continued her effort
to define proper social conduct
and good manners. Peggy has
appeared on Oprah, Good Morning
America, Dr. Phil and The View. She
has a column in Good Housekeeping
magazine and writes a wedding
etiquette column in The New York
Times. Peggy’s talk at Chapter IH’s
luncheon was titled “Would Emily Post
be Shocked?” She talked about how to
apply the principles of good manners
to the latest issues and demands of
the 21st century. More than 100 people
attended the event and Chapter IH
counts this as one of their most
successful fundraisers ever.

P.E.O. AUTHORS
Margaret Stewart, EA, Carefree,
Arizona, wrote
“A Lie in the Left
Hand.” Margaret
fell under the spell
of the Sonoran
Desert foothills
30 years ago
when she began
exploring their
mountains and
arroyos. She has written the three
novels in her mystery series using her
background in science, art, history and
English, plus a passion for the outdoors.
In her latest volume, “A Lie in the
Left Hand,” she once again captures
the essence of the desert landscape
north of Phoenix as her protagonist
Marshal Hank Sanchez and the wealthy
Anglos in the small town of Chuparrosa,
Arizona, clash over old bones and
ancient mysteries. A powerful cover-up
is driving flames, real and imagined,
that only a deluge can extinguish.
Sanchez must uncover the mystery
of these long-ago deaths to save
his career.
A 65-year member of P.E.O.,
Margaret grew up in the Midwest
and has belonged to six P.E.O. chapters
in five states. She received her B.S.
degree from Iowa State University.
Geraldine Mathias, B, Blackfoot,
Idaho, recently
released her second
children’s book,
“The Tale of
Strawberry Rose.”
The character of
Strawberry Rose
and her adventures
are loosely based
on a shopping
game her own daughter used to play
when she was about four. Strawberry
Rose was a nickname she gave herself
at about the same time. In the story,
Strawberry Rose is only four years old,
but she loves to pretend shop all over
the house. She collects objects in
little brown lunch bags and hides
48
them in her closet. When anything
her parents need is missing they have
to sort through Strawberry’s loot.
One troublesome day, daddy’s wallet
is missing, and of course she gets
the blame. The rhyming text of this
charming story will carry the reader
along as Strawberry Rose works to
prove her innocence and helps to
find the real culprit. Illustrator Nancy
Schellenberg’s clever and engaging
illustrations bring the story to life.
Geraldine’s first book, “Cookies for
Frankie,” was published two years ago.
Geraldine is a frequent contributor
to Idaho Magazine and is a member
of the Idaho Writers’ League where
she has won numerous awards in
various literary genres.
Janet Dean, AN, Fort Wayne,
Indiana, wrote “The Bride Wore Spurs,”
her seventh inspirational historical
romance novel for
Love Inspired Books.
To keep the
Texas ranch she
loves, Hannah
Parrish will wed a
man she doesn’t.
Cowpokes won’t
take orders from a young, single
female. But while her exasperating
neighbor Matt Walker jokes about her
being a mere debutante, Hannah is a
rancher to the core. Just like Matt.
“Will you marry me?” It’s a question
widowed Matt never intended to ask
again. Now spirited Hannah is asking
him for a marriage of convenience! Yet
whether she’s birthing a calf or caring
for a young orphan, the tomboy next
door is becoming the partner Matt
always hoped for. Now he must
convince her the greatest strength
comes in trusting your heart to
another—and your future to God….
Janet received a B.S. in education
at Indiana University. She married her
college sweetheart and taught first
grade before leaving teaching to
rear their two daughters. With her

Joann Colvill, V, Fargo, North
Dakota, and Sharon Oien, EZ,
Mesa, Arizona,
(aka the
“Scribble” Sisters)
have collaborated
and published
“Clinical
Veterinary
Language,”
a textbook
for students entering the veterinary
profession. Joann, a veterinarian and
Sharon, a medical technologist and
nuclear medical technologist, are
actual sisters as well as P.E.O. sisters.
They both taught classes in medical
terminology, so when Joann was
approached by Elsevier, Inc. to create
a new veterinary medical terminology
book her first thought was to include
her sister.
With its interesting facts, humor
and easy-to-follow explanations, the
book helps demystify veterinary
medical terminology even for those with
little or no background in veterinary
medicine. Using a unique format they
created, the book is based on word
analysis, i.e., defining sometimesintimidating medical words by breaking
them down into component parts
and defining each part. It takes the
students through each system of
an animal’s body, introducing word
roots, suffixes, prefixes, colloquial
terms and words that defy analysis.
The learning process starts with the
animal’s skin and moves inward.
Students eventually build a hypothetical
animal so they can see the animal
as a whole rather than by individual
systems. Exclusive to the book are
numerous case studies that encourage
students to read and understand
medical reports.
The sisters also provided content
for a website that includes an audio
glossary and word games to reinforce
mastery of clinical veterinary language.
Pamela Chitwood, VV, Weed,
California, wrote
“Jayda’s Gift,” a
middle grade fairy
tale chapter book
about a dryad
outcast, kidnapped
and sold in a mage
auction. Jayda is
rescued by her
young human
friend Chase, his father Lionel and Ione,
an elf. Dying from her soul-linked oak
being uprooted, Jayda must find a new
home before she dies. Jayda is a strong
female coming into her own power
while learning about friendship and
her place in the world.
Cathleen Armstrong, LL, Redwood
City, California,
wrote “One More
Last Chance,” a
follow-up to
her first book
“Welcome to Last
Chance,” which
won the 2009
American Christian
Fiction Writers
Genesis Award for
Women's Fiction.
Sarah Cooley has come home to
Last Chance, New Mexico, for one
reason—because it doesn't change.
After an engagement gone bad
with a man who wanted to change
everything about her, Sarah is more
than ready for the town whose motto
may as well be, "If it ain't broke, don't
fix it." Chris Reed, on the other hand,
wants nothing more than to spark
some change in the little town. As
the new owner of the Dip 'n' Dine,
he's shaking things up to draw
folks from all over the Southwest
into his restaurant.
As it turns out, the winds of change
are blowing into Last Chance—just
not in the ways that Sarah or Chris
might expect. “One More Last
Chance” is a soul-searching, romantic
story of two people navigating the
twists and turns of small-town life.
Cathleen lives in the San Francisco
Bay Area with her husband Ed and
their corgi. Though she has been in
California for many years now, her
roots remain deep in New Mexico
where she grew up and where much
of her family still lives. She is the
third of four generations of P.E.O.s in
her family.
Sharon McCoy, CH,Center,
Colorado, wrote
"What If?" a
children's book
with a Christian
moral about a
fanciful journey
finding the Fruit of
the Spirit only to
find out that what
is sought out is
already within the believer. The book
features Sharon's ceramic sculptures
that are super-imposed onto a
photograph background.
Sharon was born in Chula Vista,
California. She moved to Monte Vista,
Colorado, in April of 1980 where
she met and married Glen. Glen and
Sharon raise potatoes and Coors
barley on their farm. They raised two
children. Sharon attended Adams
State University (ASU) in Alamosa,
Colorado, to receive both her B.A.
and M.A. degrees. It was at ASU
that she fell in love with clay. Sharon
completed her studies in the Masters
of Fine Arts program in ceramics at
Fort Hays State University in Kansas
in May of 2014. She is a studio
artist and presents workshops,
demonstrations and lectures.
Sharon was initiated into her
chapter in 1992.
Connie Amarel, DP, Lompoc,
California,
wrote “The
Adventures
of Dixie the
Three-Legged
Dog,” a children’s book
based on the
true story of an amazing dog and
some of the wonderful adventures
she had after losing one of her front
legs to cancer. Through Dixie’s many
adventures she teaches her family
and friends that, in spite of cancer,
life can be fun and exciting.
Connie is the author of several
other children’s books; all her stories
teach valuable lessons and end
with a moral.
Stephanie Painter, W, Memphis,
Tennessee,
wrote “Liz Tames
a Dragon (and her
anger)”. It is a
therapeutic picture
book written to help
4 to 8-year-old
children find healthy
ways to manage
their angry feelings.
The main character, Liz, is a little
girl who relishes having Saturdays
alone with her mother, until her
younger sister, Meg, begins having
ideas of her own. Sharing life with
a sister isn’t always easy, and Liz
soon becomes so mad that her anger
morphs into a fire-breathing dragon.
Liz is certain that her sister has cast a
magic spell until she realizes only she
has the power to tame this dragon.
Watercolor illustrations by artist
Jeanne Seagle capture the character’s
anger, confusion and cooperative
actions that lead to peacemaking.
“An Activity Guide for Parents and
Child Therapists” by Marlo Carney
Zarzauer, Ed.D., is included with
art, games and activities that will
help kids learn how to verbalize
their emotions and recognize
physical cues of anger.
Stephanie has a master’s degree in
counseling. She lives in Germantown,
Tennessee, with her husband Eric
and her daughters Kara and Ella.
Stephanie joined P.E.O. in 2010.
