>> County Chapter, and I served as its president until we dissolved it
>> because of lack of interest. That was hard, so it is good to see the
>> chapter and the state affiliate doing so well now.
>>
>> I think it is important to always be able to tell our story. Dick Edlund

>> Even while he was in the state legislature, he worked tirelessly for the

>> in them. I thought fondly of that issue as I traveled about the
>> Louisville Zoo in June with my daughter. The Stanzels butted heads with
>> the Feds with regard to blindness issues, and Susie has told you of that.
>> The Federation was their family. Eileen Edlund continued working in the
>> Federation until her cancer made it impossible for her to continue on.
>> Dick cared for her and continued working to it respectbable to be blind
>> in Kansas. All of them sacrificed themselves and their family sacred time
>> to make the lives of us all just a little better, along with Martha and
>> Jack Kelly, Beth and Ray Graber, and countless others. Martha and Beth
>> were both willing to drive folks to affiliate and chapter events, and
>> Martha served for years and years as the trusted treasurer of the
