[NAGDU] NAGDU Digest, Vol 173, Issue 15

Thu Aug 22 13:38:58 UTC 2019

Hi every one, Mardi from Arizona here. Several questions. First, I have
been trying to pay my dues for NAGDU and the money order keeps coming back
in the snail mail. I guess I'm not finding the right person to send it too.
Can any one give me the correct person and sddress so I can pay my dues ?
Also , I have been trying to reach Marion as I need some advice and  a
letter from him with some information for an upcoming law suit I have
filed. I have been trying for several months to reach him.n I can be
reached by email  wolfsinger.lakota at gmail.com or by phone   520-867-1654
Thanks  Mardi Hadfield.
