Hello,

Esther is right it happens to the best of us. The convention can be 
overwhelming and things forgotten. Maryanne you do a great job as our 
President.


To Jim,

  I want to thank you for all your hard work on the Board over the 
years.  I know you will continue to work hard as our Legislative 
liaison. You will be missed.

Sincerely,

Becky Ireland
