What an enlightening article and I related to its entirety. I , too have an affinity
for the perservation of our past history as well as that of other cultures. I have always
pride myself in keeping friends from various ethnic backgrounds and embracing their
culture as well as preserving the wonderful treasures of my culture. Best of luck to Mr
Webber and much happiness . He is truly an asset and brings something special to the table
to remind our children of how special their heritages are .L Foeman gave me a well written
and informative article that was so exciting I could not stop till the end and wanted
more. Keep em coming!!!!!

First, of all let me start off by saying " that the article is wonderful and very
enlightening". I really enjoyed reading the article and it brought back memories of
my grandfather(whom is my inspiration in life). My grandfather was the type of person that
had everyone best interest at heart and always wanted the best for his children and
grandchildren. Gosh I miss him so much. The things in which I treasure the most are
pictures that we shared on his birthday as well as special holidays and of course Fathers
Day. He and my best friend (Jimmy Spady) were the two people in my life that their deaths
have affected me the most. Lisa, you have done an excellent job and your writing skills
are EXCELLENT and REMARKABLE. I am so proud to be considered a friend of yours. You have
always done wonderfully for yourself and your family. You deserve a pat on the back but a
hug as well. Continue to strive for excellence. I wish you the best!!!
Take Care,
Your Homeboy and Friend Gregory O Johnson Atlanta, Ga.

IF you listen to the evening news, Chris Webber is a pot head, spoiled athlete. Lisa
Foeman took the time to get the rest of the story. Like many of the readers of Mosaec, I
find it refreshing to hear positive uplifting articles about athletes who give back to
their communities. As an educator, I can relate to the self-esteem issues that Webber
mentions in the article. All children need to know that their forefathers have contributed
to the success of this country. C Webb, if you ever get the traveling artifact exhibit on
the road, I know of one school that would love to be on tour list. Thanks MO, keep adding
your special flavor to articles. I can always watch the evening news for the dirt.

WOW! The Webber piece is fantastic! It shows a side of a professional athlete rarely
seen. It's nice to see that our role models continue to represent! The article is very
well-written and informative. Anyone who thinks that professional athletes are all bad
should stop and take a second look! There are obviously gems in the pack.

Wonderful article . . . more positive stories like that have to be told. Too many
times, athletes (particularly, African American athletes) are portrayed in a negative
light (of course, a lot of this can be blamed on the athlete him- or herself). It is
refreshing to see a young Black man who respects himself and his history.

C. Webb is not a pot head, even though the media may say so otherwise. Also, the stuff
he collects is interesting.

The article on Chris Webber was indeed a refreshing change from all the negative images
that have surrounded, not only him, but others in the limelight as well. I wish him much
success in his efforts with collecting artifacts. We as a people, not only African
American, but as a whole need to recognize ALL history, for we will never, ever be able to
move forward, if we don't glimpse into our past and learn what those before us sacrificed
for the priviledges we enjoy and take for granted today. Keep up the Good work, L.
Spencer.

Maybe other people have not seen that side of Chris but, I have! Every time he is seen
with kids, HIS EYES & HIS SMILE LIGHT UP! Today, he told how the kids are sending him
candy while he is out with an injured knee & once again, YOU COULD SEE HIS FACE LIGHT
UP! HE LOVES KIDS!

Hi Chris, My name is Carolyn Webber, My father name is Chappell Webber. We are from
Eastover, near Webber School. I have been trying to get history on Webber school and how
it got the name Webber school. They tell us all Webber are related, I only known they
Webber to have One family reunion, still we didn't get any history on the school. If you
know of any history or if you are relatives to the Webber from over many states, please
contact me at 253 Curlew Avenue, Hopkins, SC 29061.
