SPC culinary student to sponsor Mother’s Day tribute event

LUBBOCK – South Plains College culinary arts student Shiretta Williams is giving back this Mother’s Day weekend at an event called Celebrating and Remembering Heavenly Mothers. The event will take place from 9 to 11 a.m. on May 10 at SPC’s Lubbock Career and Technical Center at 3907 Avenue Q.

Williams will bake 66 free minicakes for the first 66 attendees in honor of her late mother, who would have been 66 this year. The event is open to anyone who has experienced the loss of a mother and seeks to remember her in a special way.

“I lost my mother 24 years ago, and it never gets easy,” Williams said. “Giving to people who have lost someone has helped me heal. I invite those who have lost their mothers to get a cake in remembrance of them.”
