As her family celebrates her daughter's birthday, Laura Calderwood wants people to remember Mollie Tibbetts by donating $21 to Mollie’s Movement, a fundraiser for restoration of the Brooklyn Opera House set up in honor of the late University of Iowa student.
"We are asking people to donate $21 in honor of Mollie and we thought that was a reasonable amount that anybody could participate in," Calderwood told"Good Morning America" in an interview airing Wednesday, which would have been her daughter's 21st birthday."Mollie was very gregarious, welcoming, outgoing -- empathetic. She loved running. She loved theater arts. She loved singing in the shower," Calderwood said.
"It was indescribable and it took a higher power to get me through it, it really did … but we got through it," she said."I don't wanna feel anger. I don't spend a lot of time thinking about it at all."
Murdered by an illegalimmigrant. You conveniently whitewashed that out. Try journalism sometime. illegalimmigration is a crime and it's not the same as legal immigration. Liberalism is a mental disorder. She's dead because our govt. failed us all.
Latin America Machismo is toxic for Women. MeToo better speak up.
