Boise is a place for fresh starts, where kindness and respect are given to all who live or visit this city. Viewed from left to right and translated from Greek: Philomena means "Lover of Strength" and symbolizes peace. Callista, meaning "Beauty," reflects the endless cycle of Idaho's nature. Minny, meaning "Loving Memory," represents the many memories from my grandparent’s house. Dionte, the deer, means "King of Mercy."
