All,

Below are arrangements for Michelle Clark's services.  The family is
requesting a count due to the pandemic.  Federation members who plan to
attend should let me know by February 3, 2022 if possible.  Baltimore-based
individuals who would like transportation should reach out to me by February
3 as well.  We intend to be back mid afternoon, so there will be a time gap
between our return from Michelle's service and the beginning of Marsha
Dyer's service at the National Center.  Please plan accordingly.

Dear Federation Family,

It is with an incredibly heavy heart that I share that Michelle Clark passed
away today.  Many of you know Michelle as a founding member of the National
Harbor Chapter.  She served for many years as the chapter president as well
as a member of the Board of Directors of the NFB of Maryland.  Michelle also
was well known for her beautiful and powerful voice and was a prominent
member of our national Performing Arts Division.  Michelle worked for the
"phone company" and shared hilarious stories.  Later, she became a 508
expert for the USDA.  Michelle's laugh was big and boisterous, and she
unleashed it often.  

 

Michelle had several health complications in recent years.  In November
2021, she had a fall which doctors believe was due to neurological
challenges.  She went into the hospital in early November, and though her
health seemed to be improving such that she transferred to a rehabilitation
center this past Thursday, she succumbed today.

 

Her husband Jerome shared that she talked about the NFB often and was so
grateful to those of you who were part of her life.  Please keep Jerome and
the rest of Michelle's family in your thoughts and prayers.

 

 

We will share information about arrangements as soon as we receive them.  

 

Yours,

Ronza

 

Ronza Othman, President

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not
the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
