On behalf of the Central Florida Chapter ,my  sincere Sympathies to the family of Mr. Allen and the Daytona Beach Chapter. Allen was a true advocate for blind people in our State and in the Daytona Beach Community. He will truly be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who knew him.

> It is with great sadness that I must tell you that Allen Bornstein passed away this morning. Although Allen wasn’t able to attend state and national conventions for several years because of his poor health, he hung in there with the Greater Daytona Beach Chapter until recent months. Allen was also a devoted member of the Center for the Visually Impaired Board of Directors for years and years.
