[nfbwatlk] Welcome Jennifer

[Becky Frankeberger]

Jennifer, we have a mom here in Shelton with a blind daughter. The daughter
now goes to the Vancouver school for the blind. I don't see her very often,
but now you are here, I will clue her into this list, smile.  

Welcome, big surprise for my parents having a child with blindness. They had
no mentors. No literature. No hope. So glad it is different. That kids must
learn and not just be pushed along.

Greetings!

 

As many of you may know, Jennifer Gandarias is the proud parent of a
precocious blind young man, Luke, who attended this year's national
convention and who has been to at least one state convention. Jennifer is
interested in starting a NOPBC affiliate here in Washington.

 

Accordingly, I have subscribed her to this list. Let's show her the welcome
mat.

 

Jennifer, once a month, I come out with a "list rules and administrivia"
post. Basically, we keep posts blindness- and/or NFB-related. The exceptions
to this rule date from the start of this list over twelve years ago and
amount to a declaration that discussions of Mexican food, the Seattle
Mariners and the Seattle Seahawks are, by definition, blindness-related.
(huge grin)

 

Onward and upward!

 

Mike Freeman, President

NFB of Washington
