Tucson, AZ--It’s very rare that anyone would leave a tradeshow suddenly for a happy reason. But the Centurion Jewelry Show proudly announces the good news of a Show team member—and the addition of a potential new team-member-in-training (after a decade or two to learn the ropes).

Caroline Stanley of Red Jewel, Inc. who handles Centurion’s education and various communication projects, received a surprise phone call during the recent Centurion Show. It was her family's adoption lawyer, calling to say that she and her husband, Dennis, were to about to expand their family as parents to a newborn baby boy—but she needed to get to San Diego, CA immediately.

After quickly conferring with Howard and Patti Hauben, Caroline dashed off the show floor, packed with lighting speed, and headed for the airport. Husband Dennis, together with their daughter Mira, had driven down to San Diego from the Los Angeles area, and met her just minutes after she landed. The three then headed to the hospital where Caroline and Dennis met their new son, and Mira, her new little brother. They were able to feed and hold him for the first time, all before 10 p.m. that evening—and all while Centurion participants were still out celebrating unaware over dinner and late-night comedy!

By Tuesday evening, Mommy, Daddy, and Mira were back home with baby Daniel in the arms of his new family. All in all, it was a very exciting and wonderful 24 hours. If youd like to extend your good wishes to Caroline and her family, email her at caroline@redjewel.com
