[il-talk] Fwd: we lost a hero

[Denise Avant]

Hello Fellow Federationist,
This is a sad occasion. My condolences and prayers are with Kelly's family and friends. She is at rest now, and has no more pain.
As we learned of her illness, we all sent her well wishes and prayers.
Kelly worked hard on behalf of the NFB. She gave it everything she had. And no doubt, she took pride in her work.
