Jeff and Arlinda were among the very first Federations I met years and years ago When he and other officers came to officially plant the Greater Daytona Beach Chapter of the NFBF. I remember when Michelle was born and how she attended all the NFBF state conventions as a baby. I so remember Jeff keeping up with Michelle using a little leash because she was very active as is usually the case with a toddler. I haven’t seen jeff in years and didn’t even know that Arlinda had passed. Thank you for sharing this sad news and for letting me enjoy my many memories of the Harmon Family! <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Praying that you are doing well Carolyn! <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Blessings,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Kathy Davis<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>From:</span></b><span style='mso-ligatures:none'> NFBF-L <nfbf-l-bounces@nfbnet.org> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Carolyn Lapp via NFBF-L<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, November 6, 2023 9:09 AM<br><b>To:</b> 'NFB of Florida Internet Mailing List' <nfbf-l@nfbnet.org><br><b>Cc:</b> Carolyn Lapp <lappland@bellsouth.net><br><b>Subject:</b> [NFBF-L] More Federation Loss<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Dear Federation Family,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I am writing you with a broken heart, our long time friend and member of the NFB Jeffrey Harmon passed away on September 13, 2023.
