Greetings to all!
Please read through the following emails as we celebrate Louie Braille's
Birthday, January 4, 1809!
It is rumored that Serena Cucco was his classmate?

    Greetings Anna!
This song was played during the NFBNJ launch of the Braille coin in March
2009 and played at our state convention that fall.
In addition, during many of my ThruOurEyes shows that year, we played the
song to highlight Braille and the importance of purchasing the coin.
It was sung by a member of the National Organization of Performing Arts.  I
don't remember his name however, he is from New York and could have been the
president or an officer of the division.
Hope this helps.
Not bad for a senior.
If it is to be recorded again, I would change the part of yea, yea, yea,
yea, yea, yea, to dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot.
Thanks

Good morning Joe,

Do you know anything about the attached song, Louy Louy 100? President
Riccobono thought you might be able to shed some light on its origins.

Thank you,
Anna

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

Make a gift to the National Federation of the Blind and help ensure all
blind Americans live the lives they want.

This came from New Jersey I think. Joe Ruffalo may know the origin.
