Cheryl<div><br></div><div>I know this wasn’t on the agenda but I told Suzanne about the Department of Aging had their Disability Awesomeness Awareness Day at Fairhill Partners Nov 15. I was invited to come out again with my artwork and it became a great success!!! I had a couple of my smaller paintings sold. I think the only one I saw there from our chapter was Delcina but it was great being there representing NFB Cleveland Chapter that day!</div><div><br></div><div>Owen<br><br><br><a href="https://overview.mail.yahoo.com/?.src=iOS">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a><br><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: #715FFA; padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0">On Wednesday, November 21, 2018, 12:03 PM, Cheryl Fields via NFBOH-Cleveland <nfboh-cleveland@nfbnet.org> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div dir="ltr">National Federation of the Blind Cleveland Chapter<br></div><div dir="ltr">Weekly News: Monday November 19th, 2019<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Happy Thanksgiving Cleveland Family and Friends!<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I hope you are healthy, safe and filled with gratitude during this season.<br></div><div dir="ltr">It was great to have mending members Norma Turner, Rosa Jones and<br></div><div dir="ltr">Cecil Dukes join us this month.
