[nfb-db] Congratulations!

[Marsha Drenth]

I completely agree with Scott here. I wish wish wish I was in florida this year. Perhaps next year we should make relationships with the local deafblind group so that we can all have SSP's? I was very very upset the first resolution did not pass, but if I go to convention next year, which I am sure we will, I'll make sure it passes. 

Thank you Janice and the DB board.
