<p class="MsoNormal"><br>Dear Federation Family,<br><br> <br><br>It has been
a difficult year of loss for the circle of friendship we share in our movement.
I regret to share that that loss is being felt exponentially this evening as we
have learned that Scott Labarre has passed away surrounded by his family. The
outpouring of love from the Federation family was deeply felt by Scott but his
challenging medical condition could not be overcome. More details about services
for this extraordinary individual and information about how we can support his
wife Anahit and children Alex and Carter will be coming
soon.<br><br> <br><br>If you are like me, you are feeling a devastating
sense of loss combined with an overwhelming gratitude for what this man did for
the blind of this century. From arguing in the courts on behalf of blind people
who were discriminated against, to securing an international agreement
permitting the sharing of accessible books, to the close personal mentorship he
freely gave to hundreds of individuals, his impact will continue to ripple
across the world.<br><br> <br><br>Please continue to send your prayers and
positive thoughts to the Labarre family.<br><br> <br><br>With
love,<br><br> <br><br>Mark A. Riccobono, President<br><br>200 East Wells
Street, Baltimore, MD 21230<br><br>(410) 659-9314 |
