[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Sharing a note of appreciation

[Cathy Flesher]

Hi,

It is so nice to hear that someone found the resource page helpful. I don’t know if Karen Thomas is still on this list, but she did the majority of work on creating and updating this page on the website. So thanks Karen, you are appreciated. Miss you.


May God bless you.
