<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Richard, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sorry to hear about another death in your family. We are keeping you and your family in our prayers and thoughts. Our sincere condolences and deepest sympathy to you and your family! May God grant you and your family strength and patience
during these difficult times.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for sharing with us Mr. Kinshuk Tella’s feelings and future hot plans. We wish him all the best and success in his studies, life and the NFB.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As most of you already know, Kinshuk is one of the three 2019 NFB of Ohio Scholarship recipients. The other two are: Nakita Griffin and Lucas Cassi. I have met all three of them and found them very great individuals full of energy, motivations
and have a lot of potential. From my repeated meetings with them during the Convention, I can see and feel that they are going to reach very far!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a member of the 2019 NFB of Ohio Scholarship Committee, and on behalf of my Committee’s members, I wish to all three of them all the best and success in their studies and a very great and bright future.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Live the life you want … Nobody can stop you!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I need the Stovers here and Jessica’s Saxophone!!! They were really amazing!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, When I get some rest and have time to deal with yet another death in my family. I will start working on a positive response to the convention but here is one that you need now.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What an experience this weekend was, I had no idea how much it would impact me. I want to thank you for bringing me into this organization with such acceptance and support. Everyone at the convention was so nice and friendly towards me,
which is not something I am used to in public. I have met many great and inspiring people and have made many new good friends among the students. I felt one hundred percent comfortable around all the other people like me and I felt a sense of community. This
was an amazing experience for which I am very grateful for. I am ready to work closely with the other students and start our own contributions to the blind of America through the student division. <o:p></o:p></p>
