[Nebraska-Senior-Blind] ERROR - Found -- RE: May 9, 2022, Secretary's Report

Wed May 11 16:51:25 UTC 2022

My opinion is that we should put last names in. If we have someone reading
the minutes sometime in the future or someone who may not be familiar with
everyone in the division, it might be helpful to have last names. Sometimes
that conserve to jiggle a memory and we all know how senior memories get!
