Subject: Federation Mourns the Passing of Gary Parker

Greetings Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great sadness that our Colorado Springs chapter mourns the
passing of one of our dear friends. Gary Parker, a veteran, friend to our
Colorado Springs community, and very active leader of the National
Federation of the Blind of Colorado Springs passed away this past weekend.
Although Gary had been confronting numerous health issues in recent years,
he was always optimistic, and always willing to lend a helping hand. Gary
only came to the NFB in the last couple of years after meeting our president
Jeanette Fortin, and other members through a local blindness support group.
Gary said that he loved the Federation because it was not about
commiseration or, "woe is me." Please send thoughts and prayers to Gary's
wife, Susan. The service for Gary will be Saturday, September 27 at 11 am at
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, 8710 Lexington Drive 80920.

At Your Service,
