Dear Federation Family:
I am so sad to tell you all that David Roskos, husband of Kathy Roskos,
passed away from a sudden heart attack Wednesday. David was our chapter
treasurer and a good friend to all of us. He touched so many lives in our
community and the people he interacted with in the sighted community.
I spoke with Kathy yesterday and the funeral service will be Thursday,
January 25th at 10:00 am at Queen of Peace Catholic Church, Gainesville,
Florida; with a reception after the service. Burial will be at Forrest
Meadows Cemetery in Gainesville, Florida. The Obituary is scheduled to be
printed in the Gainesville Sun tomorrow (Tuesday). When I am using my
computer to get the website for the paper, I usually use gainesville.com or
http://gainesvillesun.com  I will do my best to copy and paste it in a
future Email, and update when able.
 Since the Gainesville Sun and Ocala Star Banner merged several years ago,
the notice might appear in the Banner too, but I am not sure. The Ocala
Star Banner is on NFB NEWSLINE. Sometimes there are Gainesville residents
listed.
Please keep Kathy and family in your thoughts and prayers.
Kind Regards to All,
Judy Hamilton
Gainesville Chapter
