The Remembrance Quilt was created by the 1998-1999 Remembrance Scholars with the assistance of experienced quilters and other members of the University community. This year marked the 10th Anniversary of the bombing and the Remembrance Quilt was the brainchild of Remembrance Scholar Kimberly Hamilton. With the assistance of experienced quilters like Francis Parks, an SU staff member and part of the Hendricks Chapel Quiltmakers, Hamilton and the other Scholars designed a quilt that featured a square for each of the 35 SU victims. The families were contacted and asked to send materials that had been meaningful to their child and could be used to make the squares. The final design for the quilt was done by Jeanne Riley and features the Dove of Peace, which was designed by Jonathan Hoefer '91, a friend of victim Mark Lawrence Tobin, and was first used in a Christmas card design. Tobin's mother, who was also a quilter, offered the Dove for use in the center panel and Hoefer agreed. The Quilt was completed in the spring of 1999.
The Remembrance Quilt Collection contains series for Correspondence, Individual Students and Subject Files. These materials all relate to the creation of the Remembrance Quilt in memory of the 35 SU students killed on Pan Am Flight 103.
The Remembrance Quilt itself is not a part of the Archives and is actually housed at Hendricks Chapel on SU's main campus. It is available for viewing each year during Remembrance Week events.
