Would you have any idea how to reach Lynda. Write me off list with that
information please.

Thanks to Dave for adding this additional piece of info about JC's previous
involvements with the local chapter in the 1980's. Jim was an impassioned
advocate for the blind until his health deteriorated so badly he was unable
to participate actively. FYI an obituary posted in today's issue of the
Lawrence Journal World but there was no new information to what I gave in my
first posting.

Best regards,
Rob Tabor | president Jayhawk Chapter National Federation of the Blind

That is to bad!  One by one we are going.  He was active in the NFB during
my second time in lawrence, late 80's.  Maybe the first time too -- I can't
remember.
