[CT-NFB] 2020 Convention

[James Cronin]

In respite, I write, a little late perhaps, but inevitable.

Dear Federation Family,

Just a few reflections on our 2020 Convention. First of all
congratulations to Maryanne for being elected as President of our
Connecticut affiliate for a second term. Thank you Gary Allen for
running a honest and forthright election campaign.

As for our speakers on Saturday, I was floored by their expertise in
their various fields. The story about the blind business executive who
led his workers down seventy sets of stairs to safety when the World
Trade Center was hit is unforgettable. And the list goes on.

Special thanks to Amy Ruell who by now has become a household name for
many of us. And congratulations to all our elected officers as we
place our trust in them.

Finally, I have a great deal of gratitude for Maryanne Melley for her
outstanding show of "grace under pressure" throughout the entire two
day convention. Thank you Maryanne. We look forward with great hope
and anticipation for the next two years under your leadership.

warm wishes to all,

Jim Cronin
