[CT-NFB] Congratulations!

[elevegnale at sbcglobal.net]

Hi, Deb and Everyone!

I thought the convention was one of the best we ever had.  I was very impressed with Everett Bacon.  I think he was one of the best national reps we had thus far.  I had a very fruitful conversation with him and he was so responsive.  It was a fabulous weekend and the hotel staff was absolutely wonderful.  I also enjoyed both of my roommates, Carolyn Dodd and Christine Gountas!  Anyway, I spent the rest of the weekend with Carolyn and I’ll be going back home tomorrow.  I participated in her swimming aerobics class today and it was a blast!  Anyway, take care and say hi to George for me!

It is not just those who serve on the board or a committee, but all the members collectively who made this a convention to be proud of. Although I don’t remember exactly the words our national rep, Everett Bacon said, but I believe the heart of it went something like this: look upon blindness as a positive. Show your community all the things you are capable of and help others facing a similar challenge.
