Michelle,

Harold's humble service will be missed.  There was no job to small that he
did not do for the Federation. I too will miss seeing him at BELL. It is
important for children to have a variety role models. My thoughts and
prayers are with his family.

Michelle, pleast keep us informed about funeral arrangements.  Harold was a
quiet and consistent worker in the Federation.  He worked hard for the BELL
program, and we will miss him there.  He came several days and was one of
the people who saw to it that things ran smoothly.  Part of BELL is direct
work with the students.  Another part of BELL or almost any program is all
the administrative and logistical things.  Someone must go to the office to
make sure we have a bus for the field trip.  Someone must help get supplies
downstairs if we are having a special activity in the cafeteria or on the
playground.  It is good to have another hand to go to the bathroom (not very
close to the room) to empty water from an ice chest or get towels to clean
the room after a messy activity.  Blind volunteers do this as well, of
course, but sometimes we are all busy, and Harold cheerfully performed these
tasks and many others I'm not thinking of.  Harold spent a lot of his time
waiting for MetroAccess to bring a new member to the meeting so that the
person could get to the meeting room.  Michelle, as president of the
National harbor chapter, makes a special effort to thank all members, not
just those in the public eye, at her chapter anniversaries, but there never
seem to be enough thank-yous for all the little jobs that go into an
organization.  Harold did many of the least glorious jobs.  We will miss
him.

All,

With a  heavy heart, we pass on to Federationists, news of the passing of
Mr. Harold T. Hayes of the National Harbor Chapter. Since we formed to
advocate for persons who are blind and low vision in Prince Georges County,
7 years ago, Harold has been a constant helping hand. For certain, he will
be missed.

Currently, we have information that Mr. Hayes' funeral will be held on
Thursday, July 21 in Capital Heights, MD. Mor complete information will be
forthcoming soon.
