Greetings Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great sadness that our Colorado Springs 
chapter mourns the passing of one of our dear 
friends. Gary Parker, a veteran, friend to our 
Colorado Springs community, and very active leader 
of the National Federation of the Blind of 
Colorado Springs passed away this past weekend. 
Although Gary had been confronting numerous health 
issues in recent years, he was always optimistic, 
and always willing to lend a helping hand. Gary 
only came to the NFB in the last couple of years 
after meeting our president Jeanette Fortin, and 
other members through a local blindness support 
group. Gary said that he loved the Federation 
because it was not about commiseration or, "woe is 
me." Please send thoughts and prayers to Gary's 
wife, Susan. The service for Gary will be 
Saturday, September 27 at 11 am at the Church of 
Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, 8710 Lexington 
Drive 80920.

At Your Service,
