"When we were approached by the show our
tribe signed on immediately to make a donation to the Piestewa

fostering strong
communities can vastly improve the quality of life for Indian
and non-Indian people alike. Since
Lori's death, her parents have adopted her two small
children, a son age 6 and a daughter age 5.
