Hello all,
I am sorry to report that Elvita Palmer lost her battle with cancer last night, July 20.  Elvita was a long time member of the Parents’ Division and the National Harbor Chapter.  She was an ardent advocate and an enthusiastic promoter of the NFB.  Her courage, dedication and spirit are examples to all of us.  Our sincere sympathy goes out to her daughter Leah and the Palmer family.  I will let you know the information for services when it is available.
May she rest in peace.

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.
