Camille and Robert Simmons are both involved with beads. Robert Simmons makes lampworked beads and is the National Director of Bead Donations to the Beads of Courage Program. Camille Simmons is a beader who makes the most exquisite beaded jewelry. Shown below is a photo of Camille wearing one of her necklaces. The focal bead in the necklace was made by Robert.

Robert Simmons made the beads
below as prototypes for BOC (Beads of Courage Beads). The beads on
the left are tiger beads - the tiger may be used as an icon for the BOC
Program. On the right are samples of Christmas Beads that Robert
wants to give to the nurses who work with the BOC children. He
needs about 150 of them so if you have some time, make some and get in
touch with him via email.
