“What an honor it is for me to introduce this month’s Valobra’s Treasure Elizabeth Stein. She is the personification of grace and strength, she is driven to succeed at anything she puts her mind to, and thankfully her mind and heart are set to fundraise for all of the major charitable causes of our beloved city. Elizabeth is outstanding at everything she does and I am proud to call her my friend.”~Franco Valobra

“I am so very proud to add Ms. Catherine Elliott to the list of “Valobra’s Treasures”. Although she is very young, she has not failed to universally and positively impress everyone she comes in contact, everyone! Catherine was attacked, in her early teens, by a rare malady which confined her to a wheel chair. Nevertheless, her spirit triumphed over the misfortune, her attitude defeated the disease and she is full of life. She is stunningly beautiful and her happiness and serenity is all but infectious to everyone around her. You cannot help but to love her, and I certainly do. She is a Treasure indeed.” ~ Franco Valobra
