I am fully aware that there were many challenges with the hotel and no matter how much I try to prepare for them, they seem to be unavoidable. I have heard of many silent “angels” who have taken a moment or two to help out members in need, and to you, I owe you a debt of gratitude. I just cannot be everywhere at the same time, nor can I always be available to get to my phone. I apologize for that. In spite of all the things that may have gone awry, I sincerely hope that all of you found fellowship, empowerment, and some new direction in your journey in living the life you want.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best Regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sheri Albers, Vice President<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Federation of the Blind of Ohio<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>513-886-8697<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sheri.albers87@gmail.com<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
