Federation Family,

It is with a very heavy heart that I share that John Cheadle passed away
this morning after an illness.  John and his beloved Barbara are founding
and lifetime members of the TLC Chapter as well as lifetime members of the
Greater Baltimore Chapter.  John worked for many years at the National
Federation of the Blind, where he served as Executive Director of Buildings
and Facilities for 18 years.  He also served as an active volunteer with the
Maryland affiliate in many roles, including as a driver, a member of the
financial audit team, a reader, a builder (he literally built things for us
for conventions and meetings), and an auctioneer among many other roles.  In
fact, John continued to support the Federation as a volunteer for the NFB of
Maryland up until his passing.  

 

We will share additional information as it is finalized, but here is some
preliminary information about services.

 

Grave side service: 

Wednesday, October 30, 2024

Ronza Othman, President

National Federation of the Blind of Maryland

Pronouns: she, her, hers

 

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
